supposedly an offer was made in order to avert this strike...something like a BIG pay raise. I could be wrong ?
It’s about automation.
I don’t see them coming to terms.
They want 40% raise...................
IIRC-—THEY want to go from $35 an hour to $65.
Yea, about double and guarantees automation will not take their job.
69% on pay and everything else to rise.
They will meet it then the layoffs commence.
Labor is demanding no progression on port utilization.
It will be met, firing will be soon behind it.
From the Daily Wire:
On Monday, the union rejected a last-minute offer from port ownership, represented by the United States Maritime Alliance, which offered the union a nearly 50% wage raise. The alliance also said it offered to triple employer contributions to employee retirement plans, better health care options, and to keep the current language around automation and semi-automation.
They were offered a 50% pay raise, turned it down because they want a 77% pay raise.
They should all be fired.
They offered a 50% pay raise. They want 77%.
If this starts hitting Michigan auto suppliers, wow this could backfire on Harris in an incredible way.
The lawless one, Biden, said he doesn’t believe in Taft-Hartley Labor Laws because he only honors laws that he agrees with.
No but they turned it down anyway - 77% or bust; plus, the guarantee of NO AUTOMATION EVER.
77% would boost crane operators to over $500K
Was offered 50% increase in pay. Said no.
