12-1:30pm -- Solidarity Rally at the Montpelier State House
1:30-2pm -- Drive to Hannaford Supermarket (456 S. Barre Rd., Barre, VT)
2pm -- Action to support dairy workers' Milk with Dignity campaign in front of Hannaford

Workers milking cows on Vermont's dairy farms are still fighting for basic labor rights and protections that others take for granted: a minimum wage, one day off per week, basic health and safety protections, and protection against retaliation. You can support Migrant Justice's campaign calling on Hannaford to protect the rights of the workers behind their store-brand milk by joining the Milk with Dignity Program.

This event is hosted by Rights & Democracy, Vermont AFL-CIO, Vermont-NEA, 350 VT, Migrant Justice, the Black Perspective, VT Workers' Center, and the Champlain Valley and Central Vermont DSA Chapters.
