Teachers Union Strike All Over Mexico

Members of Mexico's military and National Guard close the main vehicle gate of the Chaparral Border Crossing heading southbound to Tijuana, Mexico from San Diego in San Ysidro, California, as teachers from the National Coordinator of Education Workers (CNTE) begin to march and block the crossing for roughly one hour on March 18, 2026. The demonstration is due to promised pensions not granted by the Mexican national government. Teachers unions across Mexico protest in a national strike on Wednesday.
