California public union OKs strike authorization
2009-08-02
SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - California's largest state employees' union voted on Saturday to approve a strike authorization measure to protest furloughs of state workers and pressure state officials to ratify its labor contract.
Oh yeah, that'll help.
The SEIU said the strike authorization was approved by 74 percent of its membership.
Not quite a Chavez style vote, but keeep trying kids.
If I were governor and they voted to strike, I'd say, "Fine. Remember, I'm the one trying to cut the budget." Then I'd smile and double-dare them to strike.
