I wouldn’t start by firing them, but by fining their union a daily fine until it obeys. Remember that rank and file have little say about what the union bosses choose to do. But if the union bosses tell them to strike and they refuse, they *will* be punished.

So the solution is fines. And if the union refuses to pay those fines, it is contempt of court, and the union’s officers can be put in jail, as well as placing union property in receivership.

NYC has the Taylor law for this kind of thing. Under it, for every day they are on strike the rank and file are fined 2 days pay and after a certain time limit, the union loses its right to collect dues. They are also fined and not some joke amount, The Transit union tried this a few years ago and it cost them dearly.
