Union Leader Declares Las Vegas Union Strongest in U S
C T McDonough, an 84 year old organizer for the Hotel and Restaurant Employees and Bartenders International Union, says Las Vegas locals are the strongest in the nation second only to New York Local 6. He notes Local 226 has about 22,000 members and cites West Coast strength and long tenure guiding union growth. The interview references a 1970 Las Vegas culinary strike and says Hanley has revitalized the union with organizing drives.
