Frente Comum calls for a public administration strike on November 20

The Frente Comum has called for a national strike of public administration unions on November 20, protesting against budget cuts and demanding better working conditions. The strike aims to challenge the 2027 State Budget, which they believe undermines public services. Coordinator Sebastião Santana emphasized the need for negotiations with the government regarding their proposals. The strike is strategically timed before the budget vote on November 24, aiming for significant impact rather than mere protest. Santana expressed skepticism about the government's willingness to engage in discussions.
