This strike has been very unfortunate.It has made many people suffer, both kids and adults in many ways.

As a long time Tucson resident who chooses to ride the bus and walk places rather than drive a car, I say to the Teamsters: ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. Stop bullying SunTran in to giving you more money and STOP inconveniencing the people of Tucson who rely on your services of driving your buses to get us where we need to go. WE are not at fault (and we shouldn't be treated as though we are) SunTran is not at fault (although you seem to believe they are. YOU Teamsters are at fault with your selfishness, your greed and your UNREASONABLE DEMANDS...You say 'you're really very sorry" and that 'You care about the bus riders" but your actions clearly prove that you are NOT sorry and you do NOT care...

I am a stranded commuter who is missing work and can't even visit my mother in her nursing home.

They need to do the job they were hired to do. If service men and women did this our country would fall.

They need to stop being so greedy and think about all the people that will die because they feel they need to make thousands more a year. They do this every summer. Will it ever be enough? I'm sorry but the community of Tucson does not support you at all! I hope they get rid of your union and hire some quality drivers. Most of you are rude and don't even know the routes, just the one you're driving. I don't know how many times I helped people figure out what buses they needed to get to where they were going because the bus driver didn't know anything, or he just didn't feel like helping. You suck! There are enough people out of work, they can find better drivers than you sorry excuses for bus drivers!!!!

Strike is endangering vulnerable lives of those who cannot transport themselves-and rely on the bus to do so. How many more must die before the teamsters who make too much and management can settle. Just remember-God is watching us.

A person died today from heat exhaustion because they were denied a spot on the bus due to the bus being full. People are losing their jobs, have no food and can't go to school because of the strike.

I have a CPS case plan and I'm doing really well changed my life around for the better. I depend on Sun Tran to get to my appointments and with the strike I lack transportation making my case on my behalf look poor. Please go back to work.

This Strike must end. People are suffering. People have lost jobs, we can't get to medical appointments, to pharmacy's or grocery stores and even school.
