If you had plans for next Friday, you better watch the news closely. The atmosphere is increasingly tense between the unions and the Government, and everything indicates that the week will end with noise in the streets.
What is happening?
The Government wants to deal with the new labor reform in the Senate this Friday to turn it into law. But the unions, led by the CGT and the UOM (metalworkers), do not agree at all. They say that this law takes away rights that cost a lot to achieve and that it is «unconstitutional» (that is, it goes against the basic rules of the country).
Will there be unemployment?
It is not yet 100% confirmed, but the idea that is circulating is strong:
- 24 hour stoppage: The toughest sectors want to stop everything on Friday.
- Movilization: They plan to march to Congress to pressure senators while they debate.
- Justice: In addition to the marches, union lawyers are already preparing papers to take the issue to court.
«People started reading the fine print»
The CGT assures that workers are worried because they are now realizing how this reform affects their pockets and their future. For this reason, the motto of the unions is «block the project until the last moment.»
How does it affect you?
For the average person, this means that Friday could be a day of traffic chaos in the downtown area and possible complications in services. Tomorrow, Tuesday, will be a key day, because that is where it will be decided whether the national strike is confirmed or not.
