I want to say, [Nevada was] hardest hit in our nation with unemployment this last year. And I also want to mention that our Culinary Union 226 turned 85 years old last year and celebrated decades of providing hundreds of thousands of Nevada hospitality workers a pathway to the middle class.
And during the darkest days of the pandemic, unions delivered food to furloughed workers, helped them sign up for unemployment benefits, ensured they have a right to return to their jobs as Nevada carefully reopens and welcomes back visitors.
I am a former member of Culinary Union 226 myself. I’m proud of that. UNITE HERE, and our other Nevada unions are fighting to protect workers, secure benefits for their families.
