A major teachers union in Seattle has voted to authorize a strike as the new school year approaches, escalating labor tensions in the region. The decision comes after months of negotiations between educators and school district officials over unresolved disputes, including concerns about working conditions and compensation. With classes set to begin soon, the strike could disrupt the start of the academic year for thousands of students. The union’s move signals a potential walkout unless a resolution is reached before the first day of school.
