Question

issues leading to strikes
workers strike
workers seek higher wages workers wish to protect
rights
workers become uninterested in politics greater portion of the
workforce emigrates from the
united states

Explanation:

To determine which issues lead to workers' strikes, we analyze each option:

1. Workers seek higher wages: Demanding better pay is a classic labor issue that often leads to strikes, as workers negotiate for fair compensation.
2. Workers wish to protect rights: Protecting workplace rights (e.g., safety, unionization) is a core labor concern that can prompt strikes if rights are threatened.
3. Workers become uninterested in politics: Political disinterest does not directly relate to labor disputes or strike motivations.
4. Greater portion of the workforce emigrates from the US: Emigration of workers is not a direct cause of strikes (strikes involve current workers’ grievances, not migration).

• "Workers seek higher wages" and "Workers wish to protect rights" are valid causes of strikes, as they relate to labor grievances (wages, rights). The other two options are irrelevant to strike motivations.

Answer:

Workers seek higher wages, Workers wish to protect rights
