SEIU Strike Rally Shakes SC County Building
After 6 months of working without a contract and County administrators' attack on workers' salaries and health care, the 1,800-strong SEIU 415 went on strike on March 14. Pickets were set up all across the county - from Santa Cruz to Watsonville - yet the highlight of the day was a mid-afternoon rally at the County Building where, after reportedly marching through 5 stories of the building, hundreds of workers danced in the streets to old school hits and more by SEIU's own DJ. With solidarity from workers and students all over the Monterey Bay, County employees notched another mark in their struggle to support their families.
