County workers ready for Los Angeles County strike
County supervisors prepare contingency plans as 79 000 government workers threaten a walkout over wage demands. Social workers and other unions back a strike, potentially halting county services in downtown and unincorporated areas, with fire and sheriff's deputies expected to remain on duty. Conversations center on 5 10 percent pay raises while the AFL CIO backing spreads. County counsel notes state law bans public employee strikes and outlines possible demotions or terminations for those who do not report to work. County officials fear sustaining operations during a large-scale disruption.
