BUILDING A BETTER FUTURE

Michael Hines has spent the past 23 years, with UFCW, fighting for economic and social justice across many industries. His belief in the power of the individual, both singularly and as part of a collective, is what fuels his vision for building a member-driven

union.

Mike Solberg has been an active member of UFCW for the last 35 years. He has been at the heart of the battle fighting for safe working conditions and a livable wage. He understands this is a difficult struggle and requires a group effort.

Sherry Stephenson worked for 21 years in grocery and retail. She worked 12 years at Safeway starting as a Bakery Clerk and moving to Bakery Manager and then to Grocery Clerk. This experience has helped Sherry understand the problems workers face in the stores. Sherry was a strong worksite leader in her store. She liked being able to stand up for her co-workers who may not have been loud enough for their voices to be heard.

I became a UFCW 367 member in 2019, more recently, I became a Shop Steward in December of 2021, and in 2022  I was selected as a bargaining team member. I believe that, via the power of unity and organizing, we can rebuild the respect for our professions that were once held by our community, as well as by our employer.
