11
00:00:36.399 --> 00:00:39.000
<v Speaker 3>Nearly six hundred members of Unite here Local twenty six

12
00:00:39.039 --> 00:00:41.920
<v Speaker 3>have started an open ended strike at Hilton's Park Plaza

13
00:00:41.920 --> 00:00:45.200
<v Speaker 3>and Logan Airport hotels. The union represents thousands of workers

14
00:00:45.200 --> 00:00:48.000
<v Speaker 3>at Hilton, Marriott, and Omni hotels in Boston, so more

15
00:00:48.039 --> 00:00:50.159
<v Speaker 3>workers could walk off the job if they can't reach

16
00:00:50.200 --> 00:00:53.000
<v Speaker 3>deals fast. Unlike previous strikes, which were brief, they say

17
00:00:53.039 --> 00:00:55.439
<v Speaker 3>these strikes will be twenty four to seven. Union president

18

20
00:01:00.719 --> 00:01:02.840
<v Speaker 4>They are working people who work with their hands every day.

21
00:01:02.880 --> 00:01:05.000
<v Speaker 4>They get thirty every day going to work cleaning these

22
00:01:05.079 --> 00:01:07.840
<v Speaker 4>rooms and cleaning dishes and cooking food and providing the

23
00:01:07.879 --> 00:01:10.560
<v Speaker 4>service that the guests expect. And they've decided that there

24
00:01:10.599 --> 00:01:12.799
<v Speaker 4>were something and that there were something that would allow

25
00:01:12.840 --> 00:01:14.719
<v Speaker 4>them to continue to live in the city. Now.

26
00:01:14.760 --> 00:01:17.760
<v Speaker 3>The previous contract with Hilton expired on August thirty first,

27
00:01:17.799 --> 00:01:20.439
<v Speaker 3>but according to the union, there's no negotiation sessions on

28
00:01:20.480 --> 00:01:22.599
<v Speaker 3>the books right now. We've reached out to Hilton for

29
00:01:22.640 --> 00:01:25.519
<v Speaker 3>comment but did not immediately hear back. Jared Brosnan WBZ
