NH Governor Urges Market Basket to Listen to Workers

Gov. Maggie Hassan (D-Exeter) issued a statement Monday urging Market Basket leadership to listen to their workers and address the current situation, which includes continued protests by employees who stand with ousted CEO Arthur T. Demoulas.

The Hassan statement:

"It’s heartening to see just how much the workers of Market Basket value the company and respect its past, present and future. Their demonstrations reinforce the strong bond that the company has developed with its employees through decades of fair treatment, support and respect, a bond that has had a positive impact on New Hampshire consumers. I encourage Market Basket leadership to continue in that spirit by listening to their employees’ concerns and seeking to quickly address the situation with a focus on keeping their dedicated workers employed and reducing the impact on customers."
