PEOPLE POWERED POLITICS - We Got a Raise!

Sarah McCormick has been a courtesy clerk at the Crossroads QFC for 14 years. She has always been eager to help out her fellow co-workers. When I-1433 was on the ballot, to raise the State’s minimum wage, she was quick to join in that fight.

Knowing that the statewide initiative would directly affect her and her co-workers, she worked hard to support the Initiative. During the first week in January when she saw her union Rep in the store she yelled “We did it! We helped everyone earn a little more money!” After seeing first-hand the power of collective member action, Sarah is getting more involved in other activities with her union and is working on becoming a union Steward.
