Hotel workers settled contracts covering major brands Hilton, Marriott, and Hyatt and issue warning that they remain strike-ready if other brands balk.

[UNITE HERE Local 2 @UniteHereL2]

WE ARE UNBREAKABLE 💥

After 93 days on strike, Hilton workers voted 99.4% yes to approve their contract!

This settles the last of San Francisco’s 2024 hotel strikes, but we’re ready for more if other brands refuse to match the deal we now have with Hilton, Hyatt, and Marriott.

Last July we worked with @andresediez to show the superiority of In-Motion-Charging trolleybuses for rapidly decarbonizing transit and develop a High Opportunity Electrification Plan for SF. @SFMTA_Muni recommitted to trolleybuses. Other agencies should learn from them.

[SAN FRANCISCO FIRE DEPARTMENT MEDIA @SFFDPIO]

Chief Nicholson, the 26th fire chief of the San Francisco Fire Department, announces her retirement after 30 years of dedicated service.

“Chief Nicholson has been an incredible leader for the San Francisco Fire Department and is retiring with a distinguished and decades-long record of public service. She and the Department she leads have kept San Franciscans safe through the COVID pandemic and the challenges of the last few years while also helping launch groundbreaking and life-saving initiatives, like our nationally recognized Street Response Teams. Chief Nicholson has shown extraordinary leadership and dedication to our great city, and we are indebted to her for her service”, said Mayor London Breed

“I am grateful for the opportunity to have served the City and County of San Francisco for over 30 years.  Today, I am announcing that I will retire at the end of August due to unforeseen medical issues. I am proud of the San Francisco Fire Department and the people that work day and night to protect our City and citizens. It has been a great privilege and honor to serve as your Fire Chief for the past five years.”- Chief Jeanine Nicholson

Media availability will be announced at a later time. @LondonBreed #yoursffd

Strike averted at Disney.

[Teamsters @Teamsters]

Victory for Disneyland Cast Members!

Disneyland cast members, represented by Teamsters Local 495 and a coalition of other unions, have reached a tentative agreement covering 14,000 workers at Disneyland, Disney California Adventure, and Downtown Disney.

This breakthrough is a direct result of rank-and-file power and comes after an overwhelming strike authorization vote was taken last week. The unwavering strength and solidarity of these workers ultimately forced the corporate media giant to get serious at the bargaining table and present a fair contract offer. Solidarity wins!
