Legislator Anker Provides COVID-19 At-Home Test Kits to Supermarket Employees

SUFFOLK COUNTY, NY – Suffolk County Legislator Sarah Anker recently visited three local supermarket stores to distribute COVID-19 at-home test kits to their employees. She met with managers and employees of the Stop and Stops in Rocky Point and Miller Place, as well as the King Kullen in Middle Island, where she distributed over 700 test kits between the three stores. This effort follows Legislator Anker’s recent Drive-Thru Test Kit Distribution event which was open to all residents, as well as the dissemination of boxes of test kit to the various senior communities and day care centers in the area. 

I want to thank the essential workers of our local supermarkets, who worked tirelessly throughout the worst days of the COVID-19 pandemic, said Legislator Anker. It is my hope that these COVID-19 test-kits will help to keep the stores’ workers and patrons safe and healthy as we start to work our way back to a sense of normalcy.

Legislator Anker added, I also want to express my appreciation for our Local Unions 338 and 1500, who represent the workers of Stop and Shop and King Kullen. Through these challenging times, our local unions have continued to dedicate themselves to ensuring workers and their families are protected and supported.

To find out more about King Kullen and Stop and Shop or to find your local store’s hours of operation, visit their websites at www.kingkullen.com and www.stopandshop.com.
