#APSA2018 This morning I got to meet some of the courageous workers from Unite Here Local 26. Many are over 60 years old. Next to me is the brave and dynamic Mei Leung. Many of the employees have worked in this hotel for over 30 years. They have taken care of hotel guests for decades, but Marriott isn't offering them a retirement package that will take care of them. It's trying to bring in private vendors to undercut wages. And it is engaging in a cynical green campaign that cuts the hours of the cleaning staff so that they lose their health insurance. Fortunately, they are energized and united. They will fight and they will win.
Stand with Unite Here today: meet in the lobby of the Sheraton at 1:00 to send Marriott a message. One job should be enough.
