Rally and Food Drive for Northern Virginia Hotel Workers
Come to a rally and support a food drive in support of Northern VA Hotel workers, in particular those at the Hilton Crystal City Hotel in Arlington who have been boycotting their hotel.
Please contribute canned goods and other non-perishable food items to the food drive, which we are coordinating for the workers just in time for the holidays.
Visit hotelworkersrising.org for more details on the labor dispute.
Also, feel free to read this Washington Post article on one of the Hilton
Crystal City workers, Regino Romero:
