As we move closer to a potential strike, it’s important that every member has the information they need. That’s why we’re hosting a series of Strike FAQ Tele-Town Halls—multiple opportunities to hear directly from union leaders, get your questions answered, and make sure you know exactly what to expect if we go on strike.
