Members of the United Food and Commercial Workers Local 7 will begin voting Monday on the tentative deal struck late last week between King Soopers workers and Kroger, King Soopers parent company, ending a week-long strike. It started January 12th in the Denver area. Colorado Springs workers did not go on strike even though they voted in favor of walking off the job. but they will also vote on the new agreement. Wages, health benefits, and security at work were the main issues the union brought in front of management. If workers approve the new deal goes into effect immediately.
