Members of the International Longshoremen’s Association went on strike at midnight after the union was unable to reach what it considered an acceptable deal with the United States Maritime Alliance.
Picketers were reportedly seen in Boston marching to Conley Terminal after both sides were unable to come to an agreement.
“Members of the International Longshoremen’s Association are marching to the Conley Terminal to hit the picket line after failed contract negotiations with the US Maritime Alliance,” NBC10 Boston’s Kirsten Glavin posted on X, along with video of some local members of International Longshoremen’s Association. “This will impact ports from ME to TX.”
