BAKERSFIELD, CA.-Back here at home, Kern Golden Empire Transit's monthly Board of Directors meeting is tonight as day 22 of a worker strike rolls on with no sign of a breakthrough in the labor dispute.
There were no new talks over the weekend between GET and its striking drivers and mechanics.
Reports say the union came to the bargaining table with a new proposal Thursday, which included a smaller pay increase, but a longer duration for the contract.
But GET reportedly turned away the proposal. It was the first time both sides had met in a week.
GET leaders are set to discuss the recent labor negotiations in an executive session. It's unclear what action, if any, might be taken.
