Senator Bernie Sanders sent the CEO of Kroger grocery stores a blistering letter demanding he treat his employees better amid a worker strike in Colorado.
Mr Sanders, long an advocate for workers' rights and unions, wrote the letter to W. Rodney McMullen, the chairman and CEO of Kroger, to express his “strong support” for the “over 8,000 United Food and Commercial Local 7 workers at 78 Kroger-owned King Sooper grocery stores in Colorado who are on strike”.
