@lisaremillard: #railstrike #railwaylaboract The House just passed the bill to force the rail labor unions and rail carriers to accept the tentative labor agreement that was negotiated back in September. But lawmakers also passed a surprise addition. An additional bill to give rail workers 7 days of paid sick leave. What’s next in the senate?
The only way we want it adverted is the rail companies coming to the table in good faith not by forcing the workers to expect a deal they don’t want

I really hope the Senate gets behind that! I know the importance of keeping railroads going, but the fact that they don’t have reasonable PTO is crazy

The biggest rail company made 20B in PROFIT in 2021 spending 18B of that on stock buybacks. 2% of that would cover what the unions are asking for 😐😐

I wish you would do a story on how the rates for Truck drivers have been dropping. Owner Operators are getting paid less then min wage to haul freight

Why are politicians (republicans) so against sick leave. The amount of time off they get from doing their elected jobs.

This is one of the worst things the government does, if the railroads knew they would actually strike, they’d have given in to the unions and these people would get sick leave. Instead the executives KNOW congress will force these people to work below market rate

There it is people, your democratic leadership that is so supportive of your union negotiated work rights, caving in and getting involved in a situation they should not be part of. They are once again standing up for corporations over workers rights.
