Thousands of L.A. city workers go on strike

Thousands of Los Angeles city workers walked out on a one-day strike Tuesday. Leaders of the 11,000-member Service Employees International Union Local 721 said they were fed up with “bad faith” negotiating by city leaders as they work out contract details, and were determined to demonstrate the repercussions. #shorts #losangeles #union

Shouldn't America be out now, cause 3 strikes, and you're out?

Strike 1: Hollywood
Strike 2: UPS
Strike 3: LA City workers

The part about hotel workers caught me by surprise.

Finally we are organizing!!! Unions will rise again and claw back the wealth we have created!!

[ponderinggoneamuck]

imagine having good unions (I live in Florida)

[iron_recluse]

A lot of city workers are severely underpaid… and then the public wonders why they drag their feet when times get tough

[unfortunateselection]

Hell to the yeah, I hope the strikes are successful, these people deserve so much better

Working class solidarity is the only thing that gets me excited in 2023

Imagine giving a time limit for your strike. It's not like they can just wait it out

[DefaultDerrick]

I'm so proud of workers finally unified and organizing together to take back what's ours! A union for every employee! A guild for every independent contractor!

[MsRose-ixxq]

Of all the people who need it, city workers are definitely high on the list of people who deserve better pay

It feels so great to see that Unions are happening now... I might not be working, but I know that Unions are necessary for workplaces. It has in fact been shown to improve the conditions for both workers in businesses that have union strikes, and the workers that don't work at that specific business.

Lmao all the city workers go on strike and the city is like "lmao no we're still open"

As the big man said, seize the means of collecting garbage

UPS strikes, the entire country shuts down. people seriously take for granted how amazing it is that we can order anything online and it can be there in two days.

I hadn't heard about hotel workers. Here's to hoping their demands are met as well.

Power to the People and not the Greedy Corporations and Elites! No longer will we sit by and let what is ours be taken from us to prop up those who take way, way more than a person needs. Maximum wealth threshold in this country is needed and a Maximum Income threshold as well. Also index Federal and State Minimum wages to inflation so that it keeps up with the changes over time. Corporate profits are higher than ever and wages have remained stagnant for decades. Fight for your right to a fair wage! ✊

Gotta love the owners and ruling class calling others “entitled” for demanding what they’re owed.

Them I support, the public servants who deal with all the ego people
