President Theodore Roosevelt establishes a fact-finding commission that suspends a nine-months-long strike by Western Pennsylvania coal miners fighting for better pay, shorter workdays and union recognition. The strikers ended up winning more pay for fewer hours, but failed to get union recognition. It was the first time that the federal government had intervened as a neutral arbitrator in a Labor dispute.

May 13, 2024 | WORKERS’ RIGHTS | Two years after organizing the first union at an Apple retail store, workers in Towson, Maryland, are preparing to take another unprecedented step: Becoming the first to go on strike against Apple. The union voted “overwhelmingly” to authorize a strike, according to a Saturday news release from the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers’ Coalition of Organized Retail Employees. It’s unclear when the strike might take place. Bargaining is set to resume May 21, union spokesman DeLane Adams said. The union says it represents about 100 workers at the store inside the Towson Town Center. Baltimore Banner
