I've been looking for information about strikes (mostly interested in rail strikes) in the second half of July and could only find very old posts. I checked this website: https://scioperi.mit.gov.it/mit2/public/scioperi. It looks like it is updated until June 13.
Are there other sites or ways to find info? (AI gives different info/dates every time I try typing something!)
How far in advance are strikes announced? Do they typically last more than one day?
If I buy train tickets for my family and there is a strike (Rome to Venice), is it easy to rebook?
Thanks for any advice!

July is generally not a “hot” month for strikes. I guess labor unions are at the beach at that time.
In any case certain trains are always guaranteed to run even in case of strike. Just book a ticket for one of those if you are concerned about that possibility.
The list of those trains is here:
