Striking USW 5 Tesoro oil workers rallied on February 12, 2015 at the refinery in Pacheco, California. They were joined by CNA nurses and environmentalists who raised the issue of health and safety for not only the workers by the communities. This is the first national strike since 1980 and the companies have record profits.
Some workers face extreme fatigue with 14 days of continuous work and also short staffed crews that threaten their safety and the communities.
