Because Delmonte/Starkist are headquartered in Pelosi's district of course.

If you expecct Pelosi to be a good steward and a consistent one then you will be let down.

She and her husband own Auberge du Soliel in the Napa Valley {Rutherford} and they employ ALL non-union workers at that fine resort and hotel.

Yet Nancy Pelosi supported the unionization of hotel workers in the City by the SEIU.

The SEIU are extortionists.

Workers are NO better off with collective bargaining then they are without.

But none of that matters. Pelosi supports the Chavez founded farmworkers union for grape pickers yet her and her husband are majority owners in one of the largest vineyards in the Napa Valley and they employ ONLY non-union workers.
