October 15, 2018 at 2:32 pm Esau Valencia has been a UFCW Local 1245 shop steward at Kings Supermarket for 20 years. Over that time, he’s become increasingly involved in efforts to get out the vote, and this year is no exception. He’s one of the many shining examples of hardworking UFCW members honoring Hispanic Heritage Month by getting involved in their communities.
Over the last few weeks, Esau has been helping fellow members get registered to vote at his store and has volunteered his time going door to door as well.
