BOSTON (WHDH) - Gov. Deval Patrick sent a letter to the CEOs of Market Basket on Friday, urging leaders to find a solution to the current conflict.
Patrick stated that the company's failure to resolve the matter has negatively impacted the lives of workers.
"I am appealing to you to consider as well the broader implications and impact of your decision and resolve it soon, so that economic peace is restored and the workers' future is secure," Patrick said.
