" THE TAKE "

In suburban Buenos Aires, thirty unemployed auto-parts workers walk into their idle factory, roll out sleeping mats and refuse to leave. All they want is to re-start the silent machines.

TWU Local 100 Executive Board Votes to End Strike, Return to Work!.
"Dec. 22-The first NYC system-wide transit strike in 25 years ended today. Local 100 had to walk out to stop the TA's 11th hour pension ambush. We walked out strong, and we walk back stronger."

The SPNYC asks that all our members and friends CONTINUE to stand with the TWU workers in this time of uncertainty. See the TWU Local's website, TWU supporters blog, or subscribe to our mailing lists for information on rallies, pickets, and other ways you can support your fellow workers in the days to come.
