Foster City Strike
About This Item
KPIX-TV news footage from August 2 1972 with reporter Mike Lee featuring interviews with spokesmen involved with a municipal workers strike in Foster City. Lee speaks with a striker who refers to "inequities" experienced by the workforce and Mayor William E. Walker, who states they can maintain basic services for another few weeks if necessary. Opening graphic designed by Carrie Hawks.
We'd like to thank Foster City Historical Society and San Mateo County Libraries for helping to identify Mayor William E. Walker in this clip.
