The Safeway/Alberstons workers' strike is quickly gaining momentum, as employees join together to fight against understaffing, insufficient wage increases, and inadequate health benefits.

Safeway and Albertsons workers in several Colorado locations went on strike, and many more stores are expected to strike soon.

Picket lines are continuing to form at four Safeway grocery stores across the state, including two here in southern Colorado. Yesterday, workers were seen picketing in front of a distribution center in Denver.
