Yosemite Workers Vote to Unionize

Yosemite Workers Vote to Unionize In a significant move, park rangers in Yosemite and Sequoia & Kings Canyon national parks have voted to unionize. This decision comes as a response to the ongoing attacks on the federal workforce by the Trump administration. The workers, who are employed by the National Park Service, have expressed concerns over issues such as staffing shortages, low wages, and a lack of job security. By forming a union, they hope to have a stronger voice in addressing these concerns and advocating for improved working conditions. The vote to unionize was overwhelmingly supported by the employees, reflecting the growing sentiment among federal workers to collective action in the face of perceived threats to their job security and benefits. This development is seen as a part of a broader trend of federal employees seeking to organize and assert their rights in the workplace, as the Trump administration has sought to make it easier to fire government workers and reduce their collective bargaining power.
