Employees of LASchools, the nation's second largest school district, will begin a massive three-day strike on Tuesday. SEIULocal99 service workers are striking for a better collective bargaining agreement, but LA teachers will strike 'in solidarity.'
The Service Employees International Union Local 99, which counts 30,000 LAUSD service workers among its members, will go on strike next week, seeking improved working conditions and higher pay for its members. The union will be joined by the United Teachers of Los Angeles, forcing the school district to close for at least three days.
While the striking workers looking for a better collective bargaining agreement are service workers such as bus drivers, cafeteria workers, school custodians, and special education assistants, the Los Angeles teachers union has vowed to join the picket line in"solidarity" with the striking employees.
"In a school district where 86% of students live in poverty and staff salaries aren’t nearly enough to pay rent or sometimes even put food on the table, we are proud to stand alongside the members of SEIU Local 99 as we demand an end to the hoarding of resources and call on LAUSD to make the investments today necessary to secure our success tomorrow," United Teachers Los Angeles President Cecily Myart-Cruz said.
“We believe in the right of unions and the workforce to express their opinion and take full advantage of the ability to strike," Carvalho said."That is sacrosanct. That is an inherent right of our workforce. We also believe in understanding where our students are and considering the consequences of what we do in terms of the immediate and long-term impact on them.”
