In December, it announced $7.5B in stock buybacks – which juice stock prices, enriching shareholders and boosting CEO pay.
Just so happens that Kroger's last CEO was paid 457x its typical employee in 2024.

The extent to which ICE is ignoring all civil rights and due process is astounding — and indicative of a culture where they’ve been told they can do literally no wrong. Agency and admin leaders must face sanctions and legal consequences.
