Picketing Sparks Clash at Fontainebleau Miami Beach
Pickets formed at the Fontainebleau in Miami Beach at dawn as a union drive escalated into a clash. Hotel worker Matty Washway and picket Ernesto Garcia were arrested after an assault incident. The 565 room hotel, built for 14 million dollars, marks the 28th strike target in the area since April 13. The State Supreme Court previously banned picketing at other hotels, saying the union lacked a significant worker turnout. The union claims it represents about 30 percent of the 6,000 hotel employees in 164 Miami area hotels.
