In Ventura, CA, workers have had enough. They have voted to join the Teamsters Local 186, despite facing an aggressive union-busting campaign, which corporations are prone to do when threatened by workers only seeking their rights. “Frito-Lay thought they could deter these workers from forming their union with the Teamsters, but these hardworking men and women never wavered in their commitment to getting the union representation they deserved,” said Abel Garcia, Secretary-Treasurer of Local 186. Some of the Teamsters work as route service sales representatives, route service sales associates, merchandisers, and in the warehouse. One worker, Marco Torres, said he voted for the union because he believed the union had the members’ best interests at heart.
