NIH Shuttle Bus Drivers Face Union Busting Tactics

Instead of bargaining in good faith, National Institutes of Health (NIH) shuttle bus drivers are facing intimidation, harassment, and threats. NIH drivers, members of Amalgamated Transit Union Local 1764, have not seen a raise since 2012, and now W&T Travel Services demands they accept a 5% wage cut. W&T Travel Services have fired a union activist and have suspended the entire union bargaining committee. Eleven federal charges have been filed against W&T Travel Services, and the government’s investigation is ongoing. Sign this petition now and demand NIH and W&T stop their union busting campaign and obey the law. - Christian Berk
