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.

        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

      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.
