Golden Gate Bridge Workers Strike To Protect Their Healthcare And Fight Cost Shifting

Dozens of Golden Gate Bridge supported a picket line in an unfair
labor strike against the management and board of directors of the
Golden Gate Transit Agency. The management are demanding
concessions including a "Bronze" healthcare plan that would
force cost shifting with workers forced to pay more for their healthcare.
The unfair strike was called by IAM 1414 and was supported by
Ironworkers, ILWU IBU Bay Area, IFPTE 21, LIUNA laborers, IBT Local 665 and IBEW Local 6 electricians. It took place on September 16, 2014. Bus lines and ferry boat workers continued to work.
