Boycotting REI is not a decision @reiunion came to lightly, but the company's actions have left us no other choice. Not shopping during the largest sale of the year will have a dramatic impact, and, as employees of REI, we have a vested interest in seeing it prosper.

REI has strayed dramatically from its roots. For the last four years, the "co-op" has run an intense union-busting campaign using the same anti-union law firm that Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, and Trump use to fight against workers' rights.

Congratulations to all our 2026 union scholarship recipients! Scholarships are reviewed and awarded yearly by our UFCW 3000 Scholarship Committee made up of rank-and-file members from our Executive Board.

May Day 2026! We marched to demand workers over billionaires. Now we work to make it happen. Organize a union in your workplace if you don’t have one. If you do, contact your reps to learn how you can step up to be a shop steward at your worksite or get more involved.

On May Day, workers across the globe stand together to show that we have the power — not the billionaire class. Today we march for workers over billionaires, for local communities over federal oppression, for public services over foreign wars. Join us to build a better world for all working people.

We can win the fight for affordable, reliable, safe energy. Here’s how.

UFCW 3000 members in the news, fighting Vestis for a better contract!

Today we celebrate the lives of trans people and the part they play in our workplaces, unions, and communities. We also acknowledge that vicious transphobic attacks masquerading as legislation force our families, coworkers, and friends to contend with stark choices about where and how they can live.

Seattle is a union town & King county is a Union County! Our home grown Co-op needs to do right be their workers! “They’re disrespecting the very workers that made them profitable,” @reiunion.bsky.social @ufcw3000.bsky.social @girmayzahilay.bsky.social @knkx.org www.knkx.org/business/202...

Today, REI workers announced their next steps to win a union contract after overwhelmingly rejecting an inadequate offer and management refusing to return to the table with a fair deal. REI loves to sell itself as forward-thinking, but its actions tell a different story. @ufcw3000.bsky.social

This week, we're spreading the word about our fight to reclaim our co-op from administrators who want to turn our stores into cookie-cutter chains. PCC workers are demanding an end to outsourcing the deli, good wages for sustainable staffing so we can deliver the level of service customers deserve.

Stop the price gouging in grocery stores. Tell your State Representative to support HB 2481 today!

If grocery corporations get their way, a typical household in would pay $1200 per year MORE in groceries, according to an investigation from Consumer Reports. HB 2481 will stop this price gouging at grocery stores. Tell your state rep to support HB 2481 today! app.leg.wa.gov/districtfind...

On January 19, 2026, we will gather to march, rally, and demand that our nation chooses community over chaos. Together, we honor Dr. King not as a sanitized symbol, but as the radical truth-teller he was—a man who believed that a better world is not only possible, but necessary.

This year make a resolution to hang out in common areas, build solidarity, and talk about the fights ahead. Join us for our first Labor at Linda's Tavern next Tuesday, January 6, 2026!

What a way to close out 2025! More than 150 workers at the Lumen Field and Renton Landing Pro Shops just voted to join our union. These hard workers are also passionate sports fans themselves, and they're pumped to cheer on their favorite teams as they bargain their first union contract.

UFCW 3000's member-led Political Action Advisory Committee (PAAC) met to discuss how to build pro-worker people power heading into the next election. Our PAAC interviews and evaluates every candidate who seeks our union's endorsement. Then we work to put them in office and hold them accountable!

As Starbucks workers strike for a fair contract, grocery workers who serve Starbucks coffee stand with them. Our members can't join the strike, but we will not cross a picket line and we will loudly and proudly spread SWU's message: every worker deserves a fair contract NOW!

looding has displaced union families across our region. If you’re able, donate to the Foundation for Working Families—100% goes to workers in need: wslc.org/ffwf/

Ring in the holiday season with Labor at Aslan on Tuesday, December 16 at 5:30pm. We shall fill Aslan Brewery in Bellingham with good tidings, cheer, and, most importantly, schemes for growing the labor movement for the benefit of all working people.

Get out of traffic and get into our union hall! The new Des Moines light rail station opening on Dec 6 will put our offices just steps away from fast, reliable transit, making it simpler for members in the Puget Sound region to join meetings, trainings, and events.

Over 100 healthcare workers at Confluence Health Hospital have unionized with UFCW 3000—joining 450 already-union coworkers. They organized for wage transparency, equity, patient safety & will now bargain for their first contract. https://ow.ly/GoGT50XAUW0

If you need health care or groceries today, make sure to thank the people who are working to make it happen.

"Affordability crisis" is a nice way to describe corporations hiking prices for profits while the politicians they bought cut food and health benefits. Join our Fresh Food for All campaign to organize and fight back!

UFCW 3000 proudly welcomes more than 100 professional workers at Wenatchee's Confluence Health Hospital!

Tired of sitting around a table and talking about stuff? WE DIDN'T THINK SO. Our monthly labor meet-up at Linda's Tavern returns next Tuesday, Dec 2. See you all there to discuss our wins at the table, our struggles in the field, and our top 5 holiday tunes.

A while back, Kroger and a British company called Ocado partnered to build robot warehouses in an attempt to keep up with Amazon's ecommerce business. Fast-forward seven years and the bet is failing massively.

Starbucks Workers United is on strike because of unfair labor practices from the company. Please join me in taking the pledge to not cross the picket line. No Contract, No Coffee! sbworkersunited.org/take-action/... #UnionStrong #Solidarity #NoContractNoCoffee ##WeThePeople

When paychecks arrived at Mary Bridge Children’s Hospital in Tacoma, Nurse Nicole Geffrey noticed something wasn’t right. She could tell that nurses at the top of the pay scale hadn’t received the longevity bonuses they had negotiated into the new contract earlier this year.

Store closures and food deserts. Suspended SNAP food security benefits. This crisis is not an accident. It’s the result of the rise of the billionaire class. When billionaires and politicians fail working people, our union steps up.

“I don’t understand it. That mom is worse off. Our community is worse off.” — Rachelle, UFCW 3000 member and Newport, WA Safeway worker. www.thestand.org/2025/10/it-f...

Starbucks needs listen to and negotiate a fair contract. It remains a mystery to us why Starbucks won't, as many in our union work in grocery Starbucks kiosks and have a contract. #NoContractNoCoffee. starbucksworkersunited.controlshift.app/petitions/no...

Former UFCW 3000 organizer Shannon Corrick offers a class at Spokane Falls Community college about how to make our unions stronger and more effective! The one-day school features workshops to build your skills as a union member. A light breakfast, full lunch, and refreshments will be offered.
