The International Longshoremen's Association (ILA) successfully concluded a militant port strike, making significant strides in labor negotiations. The ILA's militancy is being praised by labor organizations such as the Teamsters and the AFL-CIO, who view the strike as a powerful demonstration of workers' ability to "shut it all down" and restore a fairer, more balanced economy. The success, highlighted by the motto "When we STRIKE, we WIN!", is being hailed as a testament to the effectiveness of collective bargaining and the vital role of unions in securing just wages and standing up to corporate greed.
