Will thousands of SoCal grocery workers go on strike? The critical vote amid contract negotiations now on ABC7

Union officials announced earlier this month that contract talks had stalled. A three-year-old labor contract between the unionized grocery workers and Southern California supermarkets expired March 7, raising fears of a possible strike.
