This sounds like really good news for workers and their families, but the story is a little vague about who's paying for the new benefits. It says there were talks between the union and employers, but the changes are are being made by the UFCW Local 655 Health & Welfare Fund. Does that mean the union is paying? If so, it seems one-sided.

Thanks for any clarification you can offer.
