UFCW 3000 Denounces Attack on Freedom of Speech and Assembly, Demands Release Mahmoud Khalil
DES MOINES, WA - UFCW 3000, the largest private sector union in the Pacific Northwest, demands the immediate release of Mahmoud Khalil, a recent Columbia graduate, lawful permanent resident, and expectant father who the Trump Administration arrested and indefinitely detained for participating in pro-Palestine protests.
Our union denounces this flagrant attack on immigrants and on the bedrock constitutional rights of due process, freedom of speech, and freedom of assembly.

Kaiser Permanente is making decisions that directly impact how we do our jobs and live our lives. First, there were restrictions on union access to worksites, making it harder for us to support the workers we represent. That move took us by surprise, and we filed a grievance to challenge it. After several conversations and working in partnership we have been able to work through this issue using interest based conversations.
