1,000 Duquesne Light union workers go on strike

Original: ‘Big hill to climb’: 1,000 Duquesne Light union workers strike after contract talks stall

About 1,000 union workers at Duquesne Light walked off the job after contract negotiations stalled, in a stoppage described by one side as having a 'big hill to climb' toward resolution. The strike affects the utility serving Pittsburgh and western Pennsylvania, and raises questions about power service reliability and how long talks will take to resume.

Why now: A large utility work stoppage is underway and its impact on electricity service and negotiations is uncertain.
