Vice President Kamala Harris visited Las Vegas on Wednesday and was given a back-of-the-house tour from the Culinary Union at the MGM Grand Las Vegas Hotel and Casino.

Vice President Harris met with Secretary-Treasurer for the Culinary Union, Ted Pappageorge, and President of the Culinary Union, Diana Valles, before touring the bakery shop at the MGM Grand with Congressman Steven Horsford and Culinary Union members Angelica Santana and Dion Savage.

“We were pleased to welcome the Vice President of the United States. We invited her to meet with hospitality workers and we are so glad that she came,” said Pappageorge.

Pappageorge said that they had conversations about the high IRS Tip Allocation Rate and the taxes that are imposed on working families.
