Chicago Park District employees vote in favor of a strike – Chicago Sun-Times

Chicago’s park district workers announced Tuesday evening that they have voted in favor of a strike, putting added pressure on Mayor Lori Lightfoot as she’s already facing looming teachers and school support staff strikes. SEIU Local 73 also represents the more than 7,000 school support staff workers who also have voted in favor of a strike. The CTU, meanwhile, is in the middle of its own vote on whether to enact a work stoppage.

Oh no! The citizens will lose their pickle ball coach and weekly tie dying class. Apparently the whole city knows now that lightfoot is a lightweight and that she will hand them whatever they want.

The park district in my suburb has never gone on strike! Add this to the list of reasons why Chicagoans move to the suburbs, if not move out of state all together.
