VIA Drivers Demand 5% Pay Increase

VIA Metropolitan Transit drivers are demanding a 5% raise. Members of the local chapter of the Amalgamated Transit Union picketed on Wednesday, pointing out that they stayed on the job throughout the pandemic, putting their own lives at risk. VIA says it has no formal contract with the union, but that discussions about pay are ongoing. The transit company says the drivers got a raise last October.
