Workers Demand Boycott of Hilton and Westin/St. Francis Hotels
"The March 20th San Francisco anti-war protest showed solidarity with UNITE-HERE Local 2 workers by marching to two of the hotels being boycotted by Local 2. "Local 2 represents more than 9,000 hotel workers who are fighting for a new contract. The big transnational hotel chains are trying to force the Local 2 workers to make huge co-payments for their health care benefits. Most Local 2 members are immigrant workers who can barely get by as it is due to the Bay Area’s high cost of living." The march route on March 20 went through the heart of San Francisco, passing by the Hilton and Westin/St. Francis hotels.
The San Francisco and Alameda County Central Labor Councils and many individual unions are mobilizing for March 20 against the wars and occupations and in solidarity with the Local 2 workers.
