minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink28•1 year agoVoting to authorize a strike =/= striking. Voting to authorize a strike happens with nearly every union contract negotiation. It just means “If we cannot reach an agreement by x date, we have the option to strike.”. It is very likely that the union will reach a deal before then.

The date is the day the contract expires.
