Today in 1902
President Theodore Roosevelt established a fact-finding commission to suspend a nine-month-long strike by Western Pennsylvania coal miners fighting for higher pay, shorter workdays, and union recognition. While the miners won better pay and reduced hours, they did not secure official union recognition; it marked the first time the federal government intervened as a neutral arbitrator in a labor dispute.

Amazon Workers Walk Off Job at West Coast Air Hub
Posted On: Aug 17, 2022
Aug. 17, 2022 | COLLECTIVE ACTION | Dozens of Amazon employees at the company’s air hub in San Bernardino, Calif., on Monday abandoned their workstations mid-shift over low wages and concerns regarding heat safety. The walkout in Southern California marks the first coordinated labor action in Amazon’s growing airfreight division, which uses Prime-branded planes to fly packages and goods around the country much like UPS or FedEx. The employees, who are independently organized, said they didn’t plan to return to work on Monday, in an effort to pressure Amazon to raise wages and improve safety. Washington Post
