Workers Call Out Billion-Dollar Company's Shameful Five-Cent Wage Offer

LANSING, Mich., Nov. 2, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- On Friday, November 3, Teamsters Local 243 members who work at Chipotle in Lansing will rally to demand a fair contract from the multibillion-dollar corporation.

Chipotle Teamsters are standing strong in their fight for a first union contract and calling on the company to get serious in negotiations. The Lansing store became the first Chipotle location in the country to organize over a year ago.

After a short speaking portion, the attendees will march, chant, and leaflet the store's customers.
