I’m sure theat the MN AFL-CIO pressured these lawmakers into submitting the bill. This isn’t really news worthy, if the house had passed the bill or it made it out of a comittee maybe. Heck, maybe I can get some one to sponsor a bill making Crystal brand sugar the official sugar of the state of MN.

I do believe crystal was cleared of all allegations of unfair labor negotiations not just once, but twice. Unreal.

How can the government dictate what products I can or can not buy? My entire life, I have only bought Crystal Sugar made sugar products. The company that I work for buys their private label sugar products from United Sugars. My company would have to find another supplier according to this bill. The union and Democrats have sunk to an all time low. How can the Democrats try to change my purchasing habits? This is between Crystal and the Union, the Democrats needs to stay out of it. It is not the Democrats place to get in the middle and try to influence those of us who buy Crystal products and who support Crystal Sugar. The NLRB has looked at the evidence and Crystal Sugar has not been guilty of ANY illegal practices. Maybe the Democrats and the Union need to look at what they are doing to not bring this lock out to an end.
