The Zumaia Municipal Government has joined the general strike called for tomorrow and has urged citizens to support the mobilizations.

The Zumaia Municipal Government has joined the general strike called for tomorrow and has urged citizens to support the mobilizations. As many municipal workers will also be participating in the strike, regular municipal services will not be guaranteed on that day.
The unions ELA, LAB, ESK, STEILAS, HIRU, and ETXALDE, along with the Basque Housing Union Network and the Socialist Housing Union, have called for a general strike to assert the universal right to housing and to combat worker impoverishment.
Through this call, they demand measures to address the increasing difficulties in accessing housing, to set limits on speculation, and to recognize housing as a fundamental right of citizens above commercial interests. They also advocate for policies to improve workers' living conditions and purchasing power.
The Zumaia Municipal Government aligns with these demands and wishes to inform citizens that, due to the strike, it will not be possible to guarantee normal operations in municipal services.
