Metro Workers Authorize Strike; Next Step Mediation
ST. LOUIS, MO (KTVI)– Metro Transit Union members voted overwhelmingly to authorize a strike Tuesday
Ninety percent of the members who voted agreed to the move.
The main sticking point, Metro wants to end pensions for all new workers and instead offer a 401k.
Some workers say they haven’t received a pay increase since 2008.
