The Detroit casino workers’ strike has hit a crossroads, and I’m not sure there’s a positive direction.
After over a month of union workers striking at the three Detroit casinos, a tentative agreement was reached between the Detroit Casino Council representing the union workers and the three Detroit casinos.
The new agreement seemed to hit on all the core issues the union requested. Indeed, two of the three union groups voted “yes” to the new deal and are returning to work.
However, workers for the MGM Grand Detroit voted “no” to the deal, leaving many scratching their head. It’s not a good look for the union leadership to now have their workers not under the same agreement.
