Teachers Vote Yes On Deal To End Los Angeles Strike
Union members in Los Angeles recently voted to end nearly week-long teachers strike. Teachers will return to work on Wednesday. The strike occurred after two years of unsuccessful negotiations. However, the tentative agreement reached by the union includes a 6 percent wage increase for teachers, additional support staff, full-time nurses in all schools by 2020, and smaller class sizes by 2021.
