Meatpackers Authorize Strike at JBS Colorado

Nearly 4,000 Colorado meatpacking workers set Monday walkout at the world’s largest meat producer; US education disputes see deals and strikes

Nearly 4,000 meatpacking workers in Colorado have authorized a strike at JBS USA, the world’s largest meat producer. They are set to begin a walkout Monday to protest unfair and dangerous labor conditions, according to Democracy Now.

In higher education, more than 2,000 unionized Portland Community College employees in Oregon remain on strike for better health care benefits and a cost-of-living raise, disrupting classes and prompting changes to academic deadlines. In California, the University of California and UAW 4811 reached a tentative agreement after seven months of negotiations, likely averting a systemwide strike, while Solano County and SEIU Local 1021 also reached a tentative deal after January walkouts. Separately, the City of Orange reached a tentative settlement with IBEW Local 47 to end a strike, and the Writers Guild of America West’s 110-member staff union remains on strike and could picket the guild’s upcoming talks with studios if no agreement is reached.

Key Insight

California reported multiple tentative settlements in public employment while labor actions continued in higher education and entertainment during the same period.
