– Workers at Philadelphia International Airport postponed a planned strike Tuesday and instead arranged to hold a vigil Wednesday in honor of those killed in terrorist attacks in the Brussels airport and subway. At least 30 were killed Tuesday in suicide bomb attacks in the Belgian capital. Islamic State claimed responsibility.

“As workers at highly sensitive airports around the country, they are well aware of the dangers and risks that unfortunately continue to be a threat,” the Service Employees International Union Local 32BJ said in a statement.

“Workers are gathering together in the spirit of solidarity and with the vision of a better world in their hearts.”

The airport workers will gather at 11:30 a.m. outside Terminal B/C on the departures side.

The strike was planned to draw attention to wages, labor practices, and other concerns.
