All Los Angeles Unified School District schools will be closed Tuesday as a strike of tens of thousands of workers and teachers appears imminent, superintendent Alberto Carvalho announced Monday. If no deal is reached, the strike is set to begin at 4:30 a.m. PT Tuesday and last through Thursday.
"This afternoon, SEIU Local 99 had agreed to enter a confidential mediation process with LAUSD to try and address our differences," the union said Monday in a statement."Unfortunately, LAUSD broke that confidentiality by sharing it with the media before our bargaining team, which makes all decisions, had a chance to discuss how to proceed. This is yet another example of the school district's continued disrespect of school workers. We are ready to strike.
"We've run out of time," Carvalho said Monday."I made myself available, alongside my team, for hours today, hoping that we would in fact be able to have a conversation. For a whole host of reasons, some of which I do not understand, we were never in the same room. Or even in the same building." Carvalho said Monday that the strike was not called"on the basis of economic conditions or compensation demands," but said it was instead called because of"allegations of unfair treatment." However, workers whomentioned a living wage as a major demand, with one saying the demands include a 30% pay increase along with increased staffing and more hours for part-time workers.
