The Daily Money: A Labor Day strike
View Date:2024-12-23 19:06:01
Good morning! It’s Daniel de Visé with your Daily Money.
Chanting "make them pay" and other rallying cries, thousands of hotel workers went on strike over Labor Day weekend, after contract negotiations failed between the UNITE HERE labor union and some of the nation's largest hotel chains, Eve Chen reports. The strikes were scheduled to end Tuesday.
Some 15,000 workers, ranging from front desk clerks to back of house laundry staff, are demanding higher wages, better workloads and a return to pre-pandemic staffing at various Hilton, Hyatt, Marriott and Omni hotels.
Many workers say they can't afford to live in the cities they welcome guests to, though hotels assert otherwise.
And future strikes are possible.
Where should you retire?
Florida, Minnesota and Ohio took top spots for 2024 best places to retire, according to rankings announced Tuesday by WalletHub, Natalie Neysa Alund reports.
