Walkouts Plague Louisville and Other Cities in Labor Woes
A union official says only a signed contract will bring Louisville firefighters back, while city officials seek a contempt citation. The article notes seven cities facing labor turmoil as Philadelphia, New York, Memphis, Cleveland, Sedalia, and New Bern contend with strikes and staffing crises. In Louisville, talks stalled after a second walkout, with National Guard on standby and a court order in play. Cleveland faced a separate 19 hour strike after officers protested patrol methods, and a judge held the 1,500-member union in contempt.
