Kroger on Friday formally agreed to extend the current contract covering members of UFCW 400 through Saturday, June 4. The extension came after news broke that Kroger's CEO got a 17% raise last year to $11.2 million, provoking Local 400 to call the company's most recent offers of a .25 raise "an insult to those of us who work hard every day to make them successful." Kroger workers will vote this Wednesday, and the union is urging them to reject the contract and approve a strike. photo courtesy UFCW 400
