More than 500 drivers and warehouse workers at CVS’s distribution center in Fredericksburg, Va., have voted overwhelmingly to authorize a strike. The workers, represented by Teamsters Local 592, are demanding a fair agreement and rejecting CVS’s concessionary demands. The current contract expires on April 30.



CVS is the largest retail pharmacy chain in the United States and posted $402.1 billion in revenue in 2025, with nearly $1.8 billion in profits. Despite its massive wealth, the company is demanding cuts to affordable health care and other core benefits.



The Teamsters represent thousands of CVS workers nationwide. Local 592 members are demanding the same standards won by other CVS Teamsters across the country.



“CVS needs to understand that this union will not allow concessions from a company this profitable,” said Tom Erickson, Director of the Teamsters Warehouse Division. “If CVS keeps heading down this path, they will face the full force of the Teamsters Union. Our members are ready.”
