Utah miners reject ploy by bosses to undercut coal strike BY GUILLERMO ESQUIVEL, The Militant
HUNTINGTON, Utah—Coal miners on strike here at the Co-Op mine have rejected the latest company ploy against their struggle for recognition of the United Mine Workers of America. The probe consists of a letter from the bosses telling strikers they must either report back to work or “you will have no further rights with respect to present or future employment or compensation.”
“They are just promising to put our names on a list and maybe giving a few of us jobs in the next six months,” said striker Gonzalo Salazar. “We all agreed this deserves no response.” Having been on strike for nearly six months, the miners aren’t going to let themselves be tricked now, he said.------------------------------------------- posted 7:40 AM :: reference link ::
