Email your unions about leading a general strike.

I’ve seen a ton of posts on this sub and across Reddit and other social media sites discussing holding a general strike or a woman’s strike. A lot of people point out that decentralized strikes aren’t as effective as Americans don’t have work protection and generally organize people online is difficult. I’m suggesting that those of us lucky enough to have union representation put pressure on our union leaders to organize a strike. Email your local chapter, email your national chapter, attend meetings. I’m not naïve enough to think this will solve anything, but I’m sick of screaming into the void. I want to take action. Maybe if we work together we can gain some traction and achieve a strike.
