Teamsters Local 174 members at First Student came together today to work on making picket signs for a potential Unfair Labor Practice strike. All the signs were carefully waterproofed to prepare for Seattle’s inevitable autumn rain, and morale was high despite the unfortunate circumstance that First Student and the Seattle School District have put these drivers in. It was great to see everyone working together! The drivers are still not currently on strike, but a strike could be called at any time. To learn more about the situation, click here.
