Across the nation working people are standing up for themselves. All types of unions in multiple industries are taking action and some are currently engaged in work stoppages. So far this month, tens of thousands are out on strike, and by the end of the month over 100,000 people could be out as well. This has led to some calling this month Striketober. Below is a list of active strikes with AFL-CIO-approved boycotts. As union members, we all have a duty to support one another, through good times and bad.
