Las Vegas Hospitality Strike Averted Ahead of Super Bowl

The Culinary Workers Union secures tentative agreements with hotel-casinos, ensuring smooth operations during the city's peak event week.

A strike by hospitality workers in Las Vegas was averted as the Culinary Workers Union reached tentative agreements with several hotel-casinos.
The agreements come just in time for Super Bowl week, avoiding potential disruptions during one of the city's busiest times.
President Biden met with members of the Culinary Workers Union, praising their efforts and underscoring his pro-union stance ahead of Nevada's Democratic primary.
The union, representing about 60,000 members statewide, secured five-year contracts with the involved hotel-casinos.
Negotiations had been ongoing since early January, with the union previously securing agreements with the Strip's three largest employers late last year.
