Teamsters Local 743 would like to thank everyone that supported the workers at SK Hand Tool during their 10-week strike:

A special thanks goes out to the Zakat Foundation and Pita Express for donating lunch to both strike lines for the entire month of Ramadan!

We are very appreciative of all the great news coverage from local and national media outlets.

Special thanks also goes out to all of the politicians who joined the strike line and made calls on behalf of the strikers.

The list below includes sisters and brothers from the labor movement and community organizations who visited the strikers on the strike line and signed the sign-in sheets. We apologize if we omitted anyone.
