Labor Union Protesters Block Louvre Museum in Paris

Union members and their supporters protested at the Louvre Museum in Paris on Monday, March 27, as part of ongoing action against the government’s pension reforms.

The CGT Union posted on Twitter that its members were among those blocking the museum on Monday. The museum was closed as a result.

Protests in France have escalated since the government’s decision to bypass parliament with its unpopular pension reforms, which include raising the age of retirement from 62 to 64 for most people. Credit: Ibrahim Hamouz via Storyful
