Steps from the White House, workers at the Accor-managed Sofitel are organizing for good jobs, safety and respect. Since learning of these efforts, the hotel has held mandatory anti-union meetings and threatened to change the schedule of an employee who is leading the union organizing effort. Hotel workers need your help! Workers at the Sofitel are holding a rally TODAY to advertise that there is no contract there with UNITE HERE Local 25. RALLY WITH SOFITEL WORKERS TODAY: Wednesday, May 17 5:00 PM Sofitel - 806 15th St NW “Sofitel must stop its union busting practices and honor the dignity of work,” said Senator Sherrod Brown (D-OH). “These workers fight to make ends meet, while the hotel owner – Brookfield Asset Management – continues to rake in billions of dollars. It’s past time these workers got the respect they deserve.” One job should be enough to survive in D.C. The rally is to advertise that the D.C. Sofitel has no union contract with UNITE HERE Local 25. Accor should agree to a fair process that allows workers to organize and decide whether to form a union without bullying and intimidation. We hope to see you there.
