Online donations for French rail strikers top one million euros
French protesters have raised more than one million euros to support striking workers on Friday. Rail workers began periodic strikes over a month ago to protest President Emmanuel Macron’s overhaul of the national labor code. The movement has been running a crowd-funding campaign online that has attracted an impressive amount of attention. Internet polls reveal that a majority of people in France support the Société nationale des chemins de fer Francis’ reform plan.
