Approximately 55,000 of Los Angeles County's workers have taken to the streets downtown in a massive, two-day protest -- affecting a range of industries, from public services and health care to libraries and park management.

Members of the labor union SEIU Local 721 began the strike on Monday night, saying in a press release that failed contract negotiations and 44 alleged labor law violations sparked the walkout.

"homeless encampment enforcement" as in those cops that harass homeless people for existing while homeless? If so then based, leave them alone for at least these two days, ideally forever. I could be way off since I'm not USian but that's what I got remembered of.
