Kings Road Merch Union released a statement on June 25 with their response to their bosses. “Let us be clear: this is a unionbusting tactic being used by Kings Road Merch owner Sony Music Entertainment. This will not stand in Minneapolis. Not right now; not ever,” the statement reads. “We demand that Kings Road Merch reverse their decision to close warehouse operations in Minneapolis, meet with our union to bargain for a contract, and get back to the work of making kickass merch. Unionbusting is not Punk Rock. Kings Road Merch can do better.”
