CVS workers strike in California over pay, health care and bad-faith contract bargaining
Briefly

Workers at seven CVS pharmacies in Southern California initiated a strike for improved compensation and healthcare, protesting what they see as insincere contract negotiations from the company.
Melissa Acosta, a pharmacy technician, has accused CVS of 'intimidating workers, observing them, getting in the way of them speaking to union representatives,' highlighting the tense atmosphere surrounding negotiations.
Despite CVS's spokesperson stating they have made progress on contract negotiations, Acosta reveals she cannot afford the company's health insurance, emphasizing the ongoing struggles employees face.
Acosta lamented, 'In my nine years of working with CVS, I've never been able to afford their healthcare plan,' illustrating the financial burden on employees seeking proper health coverage.
