Workers Say Casinos Not Loyal

Culinary brought their own people to the Senate committee hearing to relay their frustrations with attempting to regain their previous employment.  

Mario Sandoval, a former food server at Binion’s and a Culinary Union member for 39 years, says he has worked for the Fremont Street casino since he was 21 years old.

We should not be replaced or abandoned for younger workers when we’ve spent our lives working for our companies. We should not have to start our careers over when we are so close to retiring with dignity,” he testified. 

“Knowing I have a job to return to would give me hope, and hope can take me a long way,” Sandoval added.
