The union representing about 1,400 Kellogg Co. cereal-plant workers rejected the tentative labor agreement reached by negotiators last week, prolonging a strike that began more than two months ago.
“The tentative agreement was overwhelmingly rejected by the union body,” said Dan Osborn, president of the Omaha, Nebraska, chapter of the union.
