19 Cannabis workers at Zen Leaf in Evanston, Ill., have voted overwhelmingly to join Teamsters Local 777!
"Cannabis is an emerging industry, and organizing as a union ensures that the people who make the industry thrive are rewarded with fair compensation and a true sense of a meaningful, long-term career,” said Patrick Paddock, a budtender at the Evanston location. “The Teamsters’ commitment to both individual groups and the advancement of labor conditions as a whole makes them a true force in the movement to establish equity in cannabis.”
