Thousands have sent e-mails to D'Arrigo Brothers President John D'Arrigo and told him to stop breaking the law and denying workers the union contract they voted for. D’Arrigo has not responded.
 
Local elected officials have also joined together to help the D’Arrigo workers. The “Coalition of Latino Elected Officials of Monterey County” is made up of CA Assembly Member Simone Salinas, Monterey County Supervisor Fernando Armenta, Salinas Mayor Anna Caballero, Greenfield Mayor John Huerta, Solidad Mayor Richard Ortiz, Seaside Mayor Ralph Rubio and Watsonville Mayor Antonio Rivas. The Coalition Sent D’Arrigo a letter this week asking D’Arrigo to negotiate in good faith. (Click here to see letter).  Again, D’Arrigo has not responded.  

Please help us bring the message home to D’Arrigo.  They have ignored e-mails, they have ignored letters, now it’s time to get more direct.  Please phone D'Arrigo Brothers President John D'Arrigo at 831-424-3955 or 831-753-5407 and tell him enough is enough! It’s time for D’Arrigo to follow the law and allow their workers to have the union contract they voted for more than 30 years ago. (Click here for additional background information on the D’Arrigo struggle).

Please make your phone call TODAY!

I am distressed to learn about D'Arrigo's unlawful practices of refusing to negotiate a contract with your workers over more than 30 years. 
 
On your website you declare, "Andy Boy (The D'Arrigo Bros. Company) considers itself to be in a partnership with our family of employees...Providing an excellent work environment is just one way we care for our employees."
 Refusing your workers the contract they deserve, bad faith bargaining, gender discrimination, not paying your workers for mandatory travel time are hardly what I would call providing an "excellent work environment."
 Enough is enough. Stop breaking the law and denying workers the union contract for which they voted. It's time to stop stalling.  Immediately negotiate the fair UFW contract to which D'Arrigo workers are entitled.
