CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa, Oct. 10, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- On Thursday, Oct. 10, at 4:00 p.m., a rally will be held in support of 100 Teamsters Local 238 members at Cargill who have been forced to go on strike. The union and the company, the largest privately held corporation in the world, entered into federal mediation yesterday.

Cargill raked in $177 billion last year. Despite this, the agribusiness giant refuses to offer its workers an agreement that includes a compensation package that's consistent with industry standards and the increasingly high cost of living. The rally will gather union members, community leaders, and elected officials who stand in solidarity with Teamsters Local 238 as Cargill workers fight for the agreement they deserve.
