Strike Continues as 10 000 Teamsters Contest Firings
About 1 000 striking Los Angeles teamsters who received termination letters have hired Levy and Van Bourge to challenge the firings. Local 208 and Local 357 members were among those cut, with leaders alleging orders from the California Truckers Association. The three week strike halts over 85 percent of LA freight, causing plant closures and demands for sick pay and amnesty for walkouts while others remain on the job in Long Beach.
