The fact noone in the goverment cares about railroad workers is disgusting. They make sure shelves are stocked and goods travel. Theyre the blood in the railroad veins of usa.
It made me almost vomit to see that those dumb suits in washington think that promising few days of sick leave will shut them up. (Not to mention its a separate bill that can be denied in senate)
Only thing that this thing did that democrats spinned it as good pr and seeing comments on this subreddit. It worked.
Denying workers their right to strike is fascism! And anytime you argue “but theyre essential!” You support it.
BUT!!! Remember that republicans didnt vote against the bill because they had workers right in heart. No no. They voted against it simply because democrats proposed it.
Rail workers deserve proper pay or general strike until they get it. Not few sick days a year!
