On March 17, 2020 President Parker of UFCW Local 536 sent letters to the Governor of Illinois, to area US Representatives, and Illinois US Senators to recognize retail grocery workers along with food processing and nursing home workers as front line workers and to guarantee workers receive at least two weeks of paid leave.

All over Central Illinois, our grocery, retail, and healthcare union members are on the frontlines of this public health crisis. As we witness the demand for food and healthcare reach unprecedented levels, our hard-working men and women are working tirelessly to meet the needs of the community they love and call home. We want to thank the customers and people we serve for their incredible support and are asking everyone to please be patient and understanding as we work through this local and national emergency. By standing together, we can and will overcome the challenges no matter what lies ahead.

Sincerely,

Marc Parker- President-UFCW Local 536
