The Culinary Workers Union in Las Vegas has reached a tentative deal with casino giant Caesars Entertainment that could help avert a sweeping strike
Members of the Culinary Workers Union rally along the Strip, Wednesday, Oct. 25, 2023, in Las Vegas. Thousands of hotel workers fighting for new union contracts rallied Wednesday night on the Las Vegas Strip, where rush-hour traffic was disrupted when some members blocked the road before being detained by police.
It would be the latest in a series of high-profile actions around the country in what has been a big year for labor unions, including“No matter if you’re auto workers, if you’re teachers, if you’re writers, if you’re screenwriters, the whole concept is we just want a fair way of making a living,” said Leslie Lilla, a cocktail server at the Bellagio. “We want to provide for our families, so that is coming across loud and clear in America.
The hospitality workers say they are willing to strike for as long as it takes to get fair contracts — from the housekeepers and utility porters who work behind the scenes to keep the Strip’s mega-resorts humming, to the bartenders and cocktail servers who provide the customer service that has helped make Las Vegas famous.
As that rally began, two visitors from Missouri, Cindy Hiatt and Michelle Shirley, told The Associated Press they won’t return to Las Vegas again during any strike by hotel workers.
