That would raise average wages to about $63 an hour from $39 an hour over the life of the contract.
The union and the port operators said in a statement that they would extend their master contract until Jan. 15, 2025 to return to the bargaining table to negotiate all outstanding issues.

lol these guys shouldnt be celebrated, loyal dogs of the empire
Funny that. Needing to make money to feed your family and pay your bills. Crazy why anyone would want to do that.
If you wanna have the revolution today, by all means. Until then, people need jobs.
the union explictly striked for everything except weapons shipments to israel so that they can continue genociding palestinians, i have no solidarity for those who have no solidarity for gaza
Yeah I’m sorry the more I think about it the more I wish they had a stunning failure after agreeing to cross their own picket line to make sure genocide happens
Would I support the Nazi German Dockworkers Union going on strike but continuing to transport Zyklon B? No, I’d hope their strike gets ruthlessly crushed and half the dockworkers shot.
I’m trying to feel slightly less harshly about this but I really struggle to see how it’s any different from that example.
True they should be shot so the rest of Nazi germany can function smoother than it was when they were gumming up the works, even slightly
the nazi workers did not defeat the nazis, it wouldve been better for these american workers to keep striking to cause more strife to america, ideally youd like the strike to never ever end, a very short strike is good for the american empire
Yes I’d prefer a longer more damaging strike to the Nazi state cracking down.
Don’t worry, they’ll be gutted on automation and the other parts that are yet to be negotiated.
