Over 200 Bally’s Twin River Lincoln Casino employees and members of the hospitality and food service workers’ union, UNITE HERE Local 26, and their allies, gathered in front of Providence City Hall to demand that Bally’s restores pre-pandemic staffing and scheduling at the company’s flagship casino. The workers were joined by Bally’s employees from Atlantic City and Las Vegas as well as Encore Boston Harbor casino workers, UNITE HERE Local 26 leaders, and Providence City Councilmember Carmen Castillo.
Wearing red shirts and carrying signs with “Bally’s United” and “UNITE HERE,” Bally’s workers and their supporters rallied on the City Hall steps, holding up a “Bally’s United” banner and giving speeches before marching down Kennedy Plaza to gather across from Bally’s Corporation headquarters.
