The June 21 mobilization to support casino workers in Atlantic City
is gathering momentum. Space is available on buses traveling up from DC for the
day; the buses leave from the Greenbelt Metro at 8A and return around 8P (lunch
will be provided). Last year in Atlantic City nearly 5,000 table game dealers
and slot machine technicians organized at six casinos and the overwhelming
majority at four of the casinos voted for the United Auto Workers. One year
later these workers are still without a contract.
