Kroger and Albertsons are at it again! Despite a court-ordered injunction & a crucial ruling that could BLOCK this merger, theyâre pushing forward, spreading fear & confusion. Theyâre posting notices about store sales to intimidate workers & mislead customers.
Stayed ready! #1u

Nevada Senator Jack Rosen speaks out to #StopTheMergerðŦ.
More Perfect Union@MorePerfectUS
Senator Jacky Rosen was asked about how we lower grocery prices. She laid out the need to go after corporations that jack up prices. Rosen supports the FTC cracking down on Kroger and Albertsons, who want to form the biggest supermarket chain in the country and raise prices.

Kroger promises one thing in court when defending its merger with Albertsons, but does another when operating its business.
Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib@RepRashida
Families are struggling to put food on the table. I sent a letter to @Kroger about their decision to roll out surge pricing using facial recognition technology. Facial recognition technology is often discriminatory and shouldn't be used in grocery stores to price gouge residents.

The answer is pretty simple, the stock buybacks enriched execs and investors, and a mega-merger with Albertsons would further enrich execs and investors. Sign the petition and tell Kroger to abandon their hubris ridden merger. nogrocerymerger.com/petition

Imagine if Safeway and King Soopers were one company. They could charge consumers more and pay workers less. And that's exactly what will happen if the Kroger-Albertsons merger goes through. Thatâs why weâre supporting efforts to stop the merger. denverpost.com/2024/09/30/colâĶ
