## Resource

Chisago County workers hit day 49 of a historic strike over stalled contract talks on pay and insurance, leaving vulnerable residents without essential services like social work and building permits. Negotiations have frozen since May 22, with no new offers in two weeks, as 170 union members walk off the job. Community impact is severe, with staff saying they’re heartbroken as people struggle to stay safe or pay bills. County leaders acknowledge overwhelmed staff trying to meet demands, while workers reject a 6.5% raise offer as insufficient against inflation. A new union proposal is expected next week — marking day 53 — as the future of county services hangs in the balance. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
