Kucinich Pledges Continued Support for Hugo Boss Workers



Congressman Kucinich 111th

 

Washington, Dec 2, 2009 -

Congressman Dennis Kucinich (D-OH) today pledged continued support and solidarity for the workers of the Hugo Boss manufacturing plant in Brooklyn, Ohio, as they protest unreasonable options given to them by management.  The workers were told to choose between a 25% wage cut or losing their jobs to overseas outsourcing.  

“Apparently, sales of high-end Hugo Boss clothes do not in any way find their way back to the workers who made them.  In fact, just the opposite is happening,” said Kucinich.
 
Congressman Kucinich has previously written to Hugo Boss management in support of the workers. Read the response from Hugo Boss here.
