Meet the 18-year Kellogg's veteran who's leading workers in a month-long strike that's still going: 'What's at stake here is the American middle class'
, the company said that"the union continues to insist on proposals that are unsustainable and unrealistic.""As more unions around the country are successful in their contracts you're going to see — and we've already started to see — more people just even locally come to us and say, 'Hey, how do we unionize our shop?'" Osborn said."'You know, we want what you guys are getting because we feel like we're getting a raw deal.
In the meantime, workers will stay on the picket line. Osborn said it's the first time they've done anything like this prolonged action, and are still learning as they go.In the longer term, Osborn said he hopes the legacy is a continuation of what he believes is the American dream: A job that lets you buy a home and raise your kids with ample opportunities.
He said that getting the job at Kellogg's has allowed him to become a homeowner, and for his wife to stay at home to care for their children. "What's at stake here is the American middle class," Osborn said."If the middle class keeps getting chipped away,"We're gonna live in a world of rich and poor. And that's not what America is based off of. And that's not what it should be about."Subscribe to push notifications
