NSLU contract ratified. such an inspiring win for our local labor movement, with a tiny independent union going up against a huge multinational conglomerate and ultimately winning
December 16, 2025 at 5:51 PM
Update: with a 98% vote of approval, NSLU has ratified their first contract with New Seasons Market. The union has ended their call for a boycott and avoided a strike during the holiday season. Full story to come in @nwlaborpress.org
NSLU won a $19/hr starting wage for clerks, a massive win in the local grocery industry. Fred Meyer starts at around $17 & non-union New Seasons are at $18 (tho we will see if the company raises those stores). The two sides were FAR away on economics as late as Dec 4.

The power of a strike threat.
Inbox: New Seasons Labor Union and New Seasons have reached a tentative agreement on a new contract ahead of the union’s December Strike deadline. The TA was unanimously endorsed by the NSLU bargaining committee and endorsed by members attending an All Store meeting last night. Details to come.

New Seasons Labor Union (NSLU) workers announce that they have "overwhelmingly" voted to ratify their first contract, with significant raises for all NSLU members, a $19/hour starting wage, scheduling protections, just cause standards for discipline, and more. #pdx #portland

Incredible news.

Portland-based NSLU - New Seasons Labor Union - reaches a big milestone, raising the bar for Portland workers, refusing to roll over amidst a 3-year battle to get a first contract

Strikes, picket lines on 4th of July, fundraisers, store organizing, bargaining… impressive

final countdown starting for a potential NSLU strike 👀

I like the prices + selection a bit better at new seasons but have been trying to respect the boycott that NSLU is asking for until they get a contract. which will hopefully be in about a month

After 34 months of talks, New Seasons workers set strike date! 💥 Should New Seasons workers be forced to strike, we'll be there! Will you?

Bargaining sticking points are wages, healthcare, and scheduling. NSLU is calling for hourly wages to start at $20, up from the current starting rate of $16.30

After years without a first contract, NSLU members may strike Dec. 17, citing low pay, healthcare cuts, and chaotic scheduling practices.

Cool photo from NSLU @ ONA Providence caregivers picket line demonstrating labor solidarity!

Two active struggles in the Portland area are going on now:

Grocery workers at New Seasons, standing up to unfair labor practices and ONA Providence strikers holding strong for a fair contract!

I am being told that the recent excitement about Luigi I keep seeing online is NOT about the Nintendo character, I'm so confused!

I really did like NSLU though. This level especially was a thrill!

Yeah that broke my heart because between them I absolutely think BIS DX is the reissue that had more care into making it new. All NSMBUDX has is an easy mode character and the already existing NSLU DLC included, and it gets viral memes that blow up about a design that isn't even in the game.

Congratulations to New Seasons Labor Union on getting ready to strike and win a fair contract from their obstinate employer!! Workers are taking a strike pledge, and NSLU is now the first UE local in the PNW, UE Local 1010! nwlaborpress.org/2025/09/new-...

RP: What brings NSLU out in solidarity with other unions to these events?

Randy has also been treasurer for the New Seasons Labor Union and involved in his union since they organized at his store two years ago. NSLU is alleging New Season’s discipline is in retaliation for union support.

It’s mental for sure but I’ll feel so great once I overcome the challenge

NSLU already sounds fun knowing that each level has a 100s timer, so I expect them to be built around going as fast as possible

New Seasons used to be a good employer. They are now crazy expensive AND terrible to workers. Their labor union has been asking customers to boycott, and I signed on and remain committed, despite it being my closest grocer. Reading the NSLU bargaining news is enraging: www.nslu.org/july-23

otherwise all levels are totally possible.

now yes I could've just replayed every level in NSLU normally & hit the big red M block each time but where's the fun? I wanna be Mario man

and doing it this way means I can play NSMBU levels with Luigi physics (which doesn't present any issues afaik atm)

New Seasons management is telling us that the flawed policy they are hiding behind is more important than all of our Union members and more important than the customers that honor our Strike! #pdx #NSLU
