An Alabama coal company has reached a tentative deal with labor to end a strike that idled more than 1,100 workers in Tuscaloosa County. The United Mine Workers of America announced the agreement with Warrior Met Coal Incorporated where members have been on strike at two mines and adjoining facilities since Thursday. APR spoke with the United Mine Workers Union on how rank and file miners were gearing up for the long haul. Union spokesman Phil Smith said strikers would be supported by a fund union members contribute to every pay period.
“That strike fund right now is at a little bit over $100 million, so we will be paying benefits to members on a biweekly basis as long as they are participating in the strike—standing on picket line duty, or doing some other sort of duty," said Smith. "We’re gonna be setting up food banks; we’re gonna have other operations that we need to be doing for folks.”
