THE FIGHT TO SAVE
ANCHOR BREWING

Workers have formed a co-op with the intention of purchasing and running the business collectively and carrying on the Anchor’s legacy. We are working with organizations who specialize in worker ownership and are guiding us through this process. We need the community’s help to cover our costs as we explore the possibilities of worker ownership.
Help us keep the brewery we love open. Help us keep the legacy we love alive. Any amount you are able to give will help.

 

organizing

 In the last few years, Local 6 has been on the forefront of some great, high-profile organizing campaigns, from Anchor Brewing, to Urbaser Zero Waste processing. 

representation

Local 6 represents over 1400 members in a diverse array of industries, like warehousing, waste management, food production and hospital workers.

history

The story of Local 6 is the story of the ILWU. Local 6 was built by the solidarity of the warehouse and port workers, who believed that an injury to one is an injury to all.

The most important word in the language of the working class is “solidarity.”
