“Swifties” heading to Los Angeles to see Taylor Swift concerts this week may find a large number of staff at their hotels on strike when they get there

The union representing 15,000 hotel workers who have been staging a series of rolling strikes since the start of July said it resumed strikes Thursday morning at four of the hotels near LAX and SoFi Stadium, where the Eras Tour concerts will take place. Hundreds of cooks, room attendants, dishwashers, servers, bellmen and front desk agents walked out Thursday morning from four hotels: Sheraton Gateway, Holiday Inn LAX, Westin LAX and Four Points Sheraton, according to the union.

Unite Here Local 11, the largest hospitality union in Southern California representing thousands of workers at 60 major hotels in Los Angeles and Orange counties, have followed through with their planned rolling strikes since early July, in a bid to significantly improve industry workers wages.
