Labor unions and community organizations are partnering to give away more than 40,000 free children’s books to Ohio educators and families. The event is sponsored by the Ohio Federation of Teachers, the Central Ohio Labor Council, St. Stephen’s Community House, First Book, and the American Federation of Teachers.

Randi Weingarten, the head of the American Federation of Teachers, said "safety strikes" should only take place as a last resort. The decision on whether to strike would be left to the local union.
