> What are your demands?
> Our broad list of demands includes, but is not limited to: Climate action. Universal healthcare. Racial justice. Reproductive rights. LGBTQIA+ rights. Living wage / raise the minimum wage. Immigration reform. Education reform. Gun safety. Tax the rich. Affordable housing. Disability rights. Welfare and child support reform. Voters rights. Constitutional convention. Paid family and medical leave. Criminal justice system reform. Workers’ rights. Permanent ceasefire in Gaza.
> Specific demands will come from leaders and experts of existing fights for racial, economic, gender and environmental justice.
The one thing that does stick out to me though is the Constitutional Convention. This is a bizarre ask, and it must be how they see their demands being passed into, not only law, but an amendment to the Constitution. The problem is calling a convention is so difficult† that their strike will last, essentially, forever. The last and only time we had a convention was in 1787.

Lol.
"Hey, Johnny, what are you striking against?"
"What've you got?"

And there is a permanent ceasefire in Gaza since 01/19, which will last until someone decides to start firing again.

So they're already 2 for 19 on their demands. Impressive progress, and they didn't even have to actually strike!
