How does that differ from “teachers go on strike?”
“Workplace rules” in all union contracts are agreed to by the employer.
So they don’t “feel like” following them. Violation of contract.
I was born in Chitown.
I have never, even going back to older Daly, seen the City NOT giving in to the unions.
AS a result, pay increases for bus drivers, police, teachers etc. keep going up up up.
The unions NEVER lose these disputes, because I don’t recall a mayor forcing the issue with a threat to sue them for breech of contract.
So, now you have this mayor saying this action is illegal, and she will take action.
She won’t.
