“It does not matter if you work at the Bellagio or El Cortez,” said Terry Greenwald, secretary-treasurer of the Bartenders Union, which also participated in the strike vote. “It does not matter if you’re a bartender, a housekeeper, a porter, a kitchen worker, a banquet worker, a cook, a busser or a food server. We are all in this together.”

Culinary and Bartenders Unions members have sent the strongest message possible to the casino industry to settle a fair contract as soon as possible.

95% voted "YES" to authorize a strike!

Negotiations are scheduled next week with MGM Resorts, Caesars Entertainment, and Wynn/Encore Resorts and it’s up to the three largest employers in Las Vegas to step up and do the right thing.

If these gaming companies don’t come to an agreement, the workers have spoken and we will be ready to do whatever it takes - up to and including a strike.

One job should be enough!
