UFCW Local 371 endorses Sunday sales

United Food and Commercial Workers Local 371, which represents thousands of hard working Connecticut supermarket employees, recently endorsed the repeal of the state’s antiquated ban on the Sunday sale of alcoholic beverages at neighborhood grocery and package stores. As stated in this letter from UFCW Local 371 President Brian Petronella:

“Lifting this antiquated blue law will lead to increased sales, which in turn will mean more hours and new jobs for our members who are already struggling in this difficult economy.”

The Connecticut Food Association and the End Connecticut’s Blue Laws coalition are proud to have the support of UFCW Local 371.
