6. Secondary strikes are illegal.. |

3. Perhaps this should be a general strike - other unions . . . ? |

I saw some calls for a general strike, over a week ago.

5. In the new bill that just passed ...... |
|
The bill...
Allows the Governor to terminate any state employee during a state emergency if the employee: (a) fails to report to work for 3 working days without approval; (b) participates in a strike, work stoppage, sit-down, stay-in, slowdown or "other concerted activities", including sick calls and/or mass resignations.
