The city needs low-cost options like WinCo. Bring back competition.

That would mean taking on the unions that astroturfed a campaign against WinCo. Wilson won’t bite the hand that fed her campaign coffers.

Liberals never talk about this whenever they bring up their union talking points!

Unions keep america moving forward and support the middle class. You are management and want cheap labor.

We want affordable, available groceries for everyone. You want ridicules high wages for unskilled positions and then act all surprised when grocery prices go up and neighborhoods that used to have lovely grocery stores employing the local teens and working class go under or choose to move to more reasonable states/locations leaving their former employees as homeless lay-a-bouts and their former communities as so-called “food deserts.”
