Labor Unrest Sweeps California's Hospitality Industry

Around 15,000 hotel workers in Southern California, members of the UNITE HERE Local 11 union, have gone on strike during the busy holiday weekend, demanding a $5 per hour raise, better health benefits, higher pension contributions, and lighter workloads. The hotels are offering a $2.50 raise. The strike comes as workers struggle to afford the high cost of living in the area, and they are urging guests to support their cause by taking their business elsewhere.
