April 8, 2010
Hotel workers began the first targeted strike of 2010 at the San Francisco Hilton.
They held several short strikes last year at other downtown hotels. In January 2010, AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka and over 100 others were arrested for blocking the entrance to the Hilton after a rally and march.
The union is calling for a boycott of the Hilton and several other hotels until a fair contract is negotiated.
They handed out flyers explaining why they are on strike with a list of hotels which are being boycotted and others which are ok to stay at.
