Charlotte, NC airport workers who clean airplanes, remove trash, and help with wheelchairs at hourly wages of $12.50-$19 an hour went on strike today, the start of Thanksgiving holiday week, generally the busiest US air travel period each year.
“We’re on strike today because this is our last resort. We can’t keep living like this,” ABM cabin cleaner Priscilla Hoyle said in a statement. “We’re taking action because our families can’t survive.”
