Faculty at all 23 campuses of the California State University system have voted to authorize a strike, demanding a new contract with higher salaries, lower class sizes and more manageable workloads.
There are ways to strike while keeping the bare minimum of staffing for critical care units.

It’s not a coincidence that the main sticking point of the Kaiser strike was to force Kaiser to increase staffing levels for patient safety.
