NACDS Steve Anderson reflects on events at the U S Capitol

Senior Editor Following the horrendous events that unfolded in our nation s Capitol on Wednesday, Jan. 6, National Association of Chain Drug Stores president and CEO Steve Anderson shared the following personal thoughts with his staff and the NACDS membership: It was only a few short days ago when we ushered in the New Year with the hope that 2021 would be better than 2020. That aspiration was destroyed five days later by the abhorrent and detestable assault that we all witnessed yesterday on not only the U.S. Capitol Building, but an assault on our American democracy. Like many of you, I was stunned and shocked by the images of a mob storming the U.S. Senate and the U.S. House of Representatives as our elected leaders were following their constitutional duty to certify the election of the next president of the United States.

Retail employees lack protections, even after pandemic heroics

Jeffrey Greenberg/Education Images/Universal Images Group via Getty Images Retail workers have been touted as frontline heroes throughout the pandemic, by companies and the public alike. Protections for retail employees remain weak in the United States, and many workers and labor activists have called for companies to do more. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention did recently vote to recommend that grocery workers receive priority vaccinations, however. Early on in the coronavirus pandemic, it looked like retail workers might ascend to the role of societal heroes, taking on a designation usually reserved for military personnel, firefighters, and medical professionals in the United States.
