A rally was held in Boston on Friday, June 22nd to support USW 8751 – Boston School Bus Drivers Union members.

Less than 16 hours after the membership of USW 8751 voted unanimously to authorize a strike, following Transdev/BPS’s tearing up of 40+ years of contract justice in their union-busting proposals, outraged drivers and monitors took to the streets of Dudley Square and occupied Boston Public School’s headquarters, days before their contract expiration on June 30th.

USW Local 8751 has always stood with us in our battles with Verizon, and we will be with them as long as it takes to reach a fair contract.
