As the dock workers strike at ports across the East and Gulf Coast, a Southern Colorado economist weighs on how it will affect local consumers.
The strike involves up to 25,000 workers at 14 ports demanding better wages and job security. It’s expected to have an impact on the availability and prices of certain goods like imported fruit and cars.
Bill Craighead, director of the UCCS Economic Forum, said he doesn’t think the strike will affect life for Southern Colorado consumers.
