Mr Coffee plans to shut down its Cleveland area plant and move production of its coffee machines to Mexico. Four hundred some workers will be out of a job---90% of whom are women!

The Mr.Coffee workers are represented by the Teamsters and make about 9 dollars an hour on average. The plant has been very profitable and this is just another example of NAFTA at work.
