Transportation Strike Disrupts Westridge Thousands unable to get to work or school
WESTRIDGE, Ohio - More than 600 transportation employees went on strike at midnight last night
after the Westridge City Council rejected their demand for a 10% pay increase. The strike affects
all bus and rail services throughout Westridge and the neighboring communities of Turlock,
Smithfield, and Lowell Grove.
"We hoped we would not be forced to strike, but until our demands are met, we really have no
choice," said Wanda Thompson, a representative of the Transportation Employees Union. "We
simply don't get paid what we deserve."
Members of the Westridge City Council see the situation differently. "Our employees already earn
6% more than the state average for similar transportation jobs," said Raoul Cobian, President of
the Westridge City Council.
Hopefully the two groups can come to an agreement soon and bring this unnecessary strike to an
end.

Read the excerpt from warriors don't cry. as we approached behind them, we could see only the clusters of white people that stretched for a distance of two blocks along the entire span of the school building. my mind could take in the sights and sounds only one by one: flashing cameras, voices shouting in my ears, men and women jostling each other, old people, young people, people running, uniformed police officers walking, men standing still, men and women waving their fists, and then the long line of uniformed soldiers carrying weapons just like in the war movies i had seen. which words create the mood in the excerpt? check all that apply.
