U.S. Oil Strike Expands to 2 More Refineries 
---------------------------------------------


 
The largest oil strike to hit the United States in decades has grown
larger. Union workers at two BP refineries in Indiana and Ohio have
walked off the job, joining colleagues from nine other sites across the
country. In total, more than 5,000 workers have joined the strike to
demand safer conditions, higher pay, better healthcare and an end to
unsafe staffing levels.
