Montevideo, June 30 (RHC)-- Uruguay's Single Construction Union (SUNCA) stages a national strike between 9:00 and 13:00 local time on Wednesday to demand that President Luis Lacalle meet a number of pressing social needs.

The worker's mobilization seeks to achieve jobs, housing, social security, and collective bargaining for the Uruguayan population.  “These objectives were discussed and elaborated by construction workers throughout the country,” SUNCA stressed.

The Uruguayan workers carried out actions in the different departments of the country.  In Montevideo, the mobilization was concentrated on the esplanade of the Municipality, from where the people marched towards the headquarters of the Economy Ministry.The tweet reads: "49 years after the coup and the beginning of the heroic general strike, we continue to defend democracy and seek memory, truth, and justice.  Never again State terrorism!"
