The United Farm Workers The United Farm Workers of America (UFW) is a labor union that evolved from unions founded in 1962 by César Chávez, Philip Vera Cruz, Dolores Huerta, and Larry Itliong. This union changed from a workers' rights organization that helped workers get unemployment insurance to that of union claims the winery is refusing to provide benefits to vineyard workers, who are currently laboring without a contract. The union is asking consumers to stop drinking the popular wine. Gallo countered by accusing the union of bargaining in bad faith. For more information on the boycott, contact www.gallounfair.com. |
