On Monday management at the InterContinental on The Wharf informed workers that restaurant Moon Rabbit will close amidst a union organizing campaign. Hospitality workers union UNITE HERE Local 25 has called for a boycott of non-union hotels operated by the InterContinental Hotel Group (IHG). “Denying workers the ability to freely choose to be represented by a union is a drastic business choice,” Dyana Forester, Metro Washington Council president said in a statement. “The District made outsized investment in the Wharf and we want businesses that reflect DC values. I encourage the mayor and DC Council to consider what actions are appropriate in this situation.” Read the full statement » TODAY: Picket InterContinental Hotel on the Wharf with UNITE HERE Local 25Do you want to be where the people are?
