How long have you worked for Kroger? If you're past your probation period, they can't fire you for being late. They have to follow a chain of discipline: verbal warning, written warning, 3-day suspension after 3 written warnings, indefinite suspension. If they try to fire you before going through all that, find a union steward and do not sign anything.

Contracts are different.
Here
Verbal
Write-up
Suspension
Termination
is adequate if they want to get rid of you. Obviously if they are feeling lenient they can add a 3 day suspension or anything they want really.
They have me on suspension this week and already made me sign for something
Read what you signed. That is probably the final step with a 90 day probation. I am guessing if you mess up within the next 90 days, you will be terminated. Don't mess up in the next 90 days and the write-up process starts over at step one.
If you are going to sign anything, make sure you get a copy.

It stays for 6 months under our contract before it goes away.

Yep, not all contracts or managers are the same. My manager lets attendance slide. The OPs' manager might be trying to get rid of them. The best person to ask would be the OPs' shop steward if they have one.
If you're on probation they can fire you if they don't like the brand of toothpaste you use or the time of your fart. If your past probation why continue to be late?
My store is this:
1. Verbal
2. Verbal
3. Written warning
4. Written warning
5. Written warning
6. Suspension
7. Indefinate suspension (they need te to get your termination papers ready for you to sign)
Our store is pretty lax. We RARELY terminate late arrivals. Each store is different. Just be on time, if calling out, make sure you call. Don't pull a no call no show
