Not aware of anywhere striking workers retain pay and benefits. I take it these students didn't pay attention in history class.

Retaliation against workers attempting to organize is illegal under federal labor law.

This is a strike, not an attempt to organize.

There's no practical difference and Temple is breaking the law.

There is every difference. This union was organized years ago, the strike has to do with wage dissatisfaction. Striking workers aren't entitled to pay or benefits.
