27 Hotel Workers Defend Health Care
Over a thousand San Francisco hotel workers and their community supporters demonstrated in Union Square, in the heart of the city's tourist district, against demands by the luxury hotel chains that they pay for the health care benefits they currently had under their union contract. The contract expired in August, and the workers' union, UNITE HERE Local 2, was trying to negotiate a new agreement.
