Workers at the Pullman Palace Car Company, a railroad car builder close to Chicago, went on strike on May 11, 1894, in opposition to their meager pay and 16-hour workdays.

<h3>What led to the 1894 Pullman Strike?</h3>

The lack of democracy in Pullman's politics, the firm's strict paternalistic control over its employees, the high cost of gas and water, and the company's unwillingness to let its employees own homes were a few of the factors that led to the strike. The two of them had not yet united.

Debs believed that organizing a nationwide strike would be the only way to push the Pullman Company into arbitration because the government was acting in the General Managers' Association's favor. However, his efforts were unsuccessful. Midway through July, the boycott ended, and the ARU was defeated.

What challenges did the United States face in redefining the union after the war
balandron [24]

The United States had to face several challenges in redefining the union after the war. Two main problems were: how to deal with the Southern states that were still angry for losing, and what they should do with the ex-slaves. It was difficult to get American together after many people died in the Civil war and big part of the South was destroyed by the battles.

Apart from that, they had other challenges such as: building a solid economy, creating a stable political system, preserving the national independence (reducing conflicts with other nations and the nation itself), fostering American shipping, consolidating public support, reducing debts, etc.
