1980 New York City transit strike
The 1980 New York City transit strike in New York City (often referred to as the Subway strike) was the first work stoppage at the New York City Transit Authority (a subsidiary of the New York MTA) since 1966. 34,000 members of Transport Workers Union Local 100 walked off of their jobs on April 1, 1980, in a strike with the goal of increasing the wage for contracted workers.
