Arizona Copper Mine Strike
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Arizona Copper Mine Strike was a strike called in 1983 by union copper miners against the Phelps Dodge Corporation in Morenci, Ajo, Clifton, and Douglas, Arizona. The bitter strike lasted over a year and only ended when the company hired replacement workers who voted to end union representation.
