Teamsters to Tell Fairgoers "Tell Miller Destroying California Jobs is Tasteless"
(SACRAMENTO, Calif.) - On Sunday, July 24, Teamsters in the Sacramento area will converge on the California State Fair to inform fairgoers about DBI Beverage's corporate greed.

But the company has refused to agree to a fair contract in the ongoing negotiations. The terms that DBI has proposed would mean dramatic cuts in paychecks and benefits for the workers, despite the company's annual revenue of more than $350 million.
