Atlantic City Casino Worker Protests Continue

Traffic was held up on Pacific Avenue for a time when approximately 200 protesters hit the streets of Atlantic City, New Jersey.

The protest was organized by the young UAW/AC Union and its members to protest the slow negotiations they are experiencing with Atlantic City casino management.

Many workers from Atlantic City’s largest casinos including Trump Casino, Bally’s and Caesars Palace are still working without a contract despite the fact that they had voted for union representation from the UAW.

Organized by UAW Union representatives, the protest, which snarled traffic on Pacific Avenue for a time, was meant to call attention to the fact that many workers from Bally’s, Caesars, Tropicana and Trump Casino do not have a contract, despite voting for union representation in 2007.

The management at Harrah’s Casino in Atlantic City released a statement on Tuesday evening “…We have been bargaining in good faith for more than 50 sessions in an effort to negotiate a reasonable contract that allows the company to remain competitive in this challenging economic and competitive environment…”
