As hotels and entertainment venues across the country slowly reopen after early pandemic closures, some are threatening to bypass their former employees and hire lower-paid replacement workers. In Baltimore, the City Council passed legislation to guarantee "right to recall" to prevent this from happening. Representatives of the Catholic community from across Baltimore City urged outgoing Mayor Young to sign this important legislation into law, but “In a disappointing move,” reported the Catholic Labor Network, “the Mayor instead has vetoed the two bills.” The Catholic Labor Network is meeting with area hotel union representatives to determine next steps. Metro Washington Council delegates on Tuesday unanimously approved a similar bill that’s under consideration at the DC City Council, and UNITE HERE Local 25 vowed to push hard for the “Displaced Workers Right to Reinstatement and Retention Amendment Act of 2020.”
