BEVERLY HILLS, Calif., May 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The United Steelworkers (USW) said that on May 3, 2022, the union will sponsor a demonstration in support of members of Local 12-5 on strike against Chevron at the Milken Institute's 2022 Global Conference, where Chevron Executive Vice President Mark Nelson will be speaking.
Union members will join supporters, including members of USW Local 675 from Marathon in Carson and other activists, to spread the message that Chevron needs to negotiate in good faith for a fair contract at the Richmond refinery so that workers can return to their rightful jobs.
About 500 members of USW Local 12-5 have been on strike against Chevron's unfair labor practices since March 21, 2022.
Chevron has insisted on proposals that will compromise safety, and USW members chose to strike after rejecting the company's "last, best and final" contract ultimatum.
