Why Omaha Workers Are on Strike

For decades, workers at Glazer’s Beer and Beverage have helped build a reliable distribution network across Omaha. Today, they’re on strike to protect basic standards they’ve had for years.

What’s Happening

Workers have been on strike since February 2 after the company:

• Refused to bargain in good faith
• Pushed major changes to long-standing healthcare coverage
• Proposed significant cost increases for workers and their families

Why Workers Are Taking a Stand

1. Bad Faith Bargaining

Workers came to the table ready to negotiate. Instead, the company has stalled progress and failed to engage meaningfully on core issues.

2. Healthcare Cuts

For nearly 30 years, workers have had stable health insurance they could rely on. The company is now trying to force changes that would make coverage significantly more expensive and less secure.

3. Respect on the Job

This isn’t just about numbers. Workers are standing up against a pattern of disregard for their voices and their union.

Why This Matters to Omaha

These are local workers. They support families, spend money in the community, and keep businesses running.

When companies try to cut standards here, it doesn’t stay contained. It spreads.

Take Action

• Send a letter to company leadership
• Boycott products distributed by Glazer’s
• Talk to your local bar or retailer and encourage them to boycott Premier products

A company’s success is built by its workers just as much as its executives. Omaha deserves better than this.
