This is the best summary I could come up with:

Macy’s workers are planning to strike on Black Friday, alleging unfair labor practices and the retailer’s failure to reach a new union contract deal.

“Macy’s CEO gets $11m per year while a lot of his workers rely on food banks, and some can’t even afford to see doctors because of the low wages and the expensive healthcare.”

Starting pay in the most recent contract with Macy’s was at or near Washington state’s minimum wage, which goes up to to $16.28 an hour from 1 January.

Thousands of people have signed on to a petition supporting the workers’ strike and pledging not to cross the picket line.

Liisa Luick, another long-time sales associate at Macy’s in Lynnwood, Washington, claimed she had been subjected to unfair labor practices.

Luick said she was suspended for two weeks without pay last year after calling the police in response to an individual posing a safety threat at the store.
