UNITE HERE! Local 8

Local 8 is the the hospitality workers union of the Northwest. Our members work in hotels, food service & airport concessions. RTs do not equal endorsement.

[UNITE HERE! Local 8 @UniteHereLocal8]

We've taken care of @Seahawks fans for years. The hotel might not let you know workers are on strike but we will.

Don't cross our picket line. Do not eat, sleep, or drink at the Embassy Suites by Hilton Pioneer Square while workers are on strike.

[UNITE HERE! Local 8 @UniteHereLocal8]

@Seahawks fans: skip the Embassy Suites by Hilton Pioneer Square this season while hotel workers are on strike.

It's @LumenField's closest hotel - but Superbowl champs don't cross picket lines.

[So. Seattle Emerald @SoSeaEmerald]

At the Embassy Suites in Pioneer Square, hotel workers, through UNITE HERE Local 8, have been on strike since June 18. It's now the longest hotel strike in Washington history. https://t.co/Hv5TumOlPl

Here's why the Seattle Mayor and King County Executive joined hotel workers on Labor Day who have been on strike for 82 days. https://t.co/Ts9K1KhhvW

[UNITE HERE! Local 8 @UniteHereLocal8]

Embassy Suites Pioneer Square is @LumenField's closest hotel... but the 12s don't cross picket lines.

Join Embassy Suites strikers before the Seahawks home opener, 9/9 3:30-5:30 pm

[UNITE HERE! Local 8 @UniteHereLocal8]

Thank you to Lupe Carlos III for capturing our resolve.

[UNITE HERE! Local 8 @UniteHereLocal8]

Can you hear us? No contract, NO PEACE!

@EmbassySuites by @HiltonHotels workers are standing strong until we win fair wages and workloads, year-round healthcare, and immigration protections.

[The STAND @TheStandWA]

.@UniteHereLocal8 invites supporters to walk the line with striking hotel workers from 11am-1pm outside Embassy Suites in Seattle before the Sounders game this Saturday. https://t.co/NXJ0DyD3Gx

[The STAND @TheStandWA]

Members of more than a dozen local labor unions and elected officials joined striking hotel workers on the picket line in front of Embassy Suites in Seattle on Thursday. Said @UniteHereLocal8 Pres.: “Workers need wages and benefits that allow them to survive in Seattle.”

[Washington State Labor Council, AFL-CIO @WAAFLCIO]

TWO MONTHS on strike and our @UniteHereLocal8 siblings aren’t taking their foot off the gas 🔥🔥 Washington’s labor movement stands with them as they fight for the contract they deserve.

[UNITE HERE! Local 8 @UniteHereLocal8]

As significant repeat business pulls & support for our strike grows, we're on the line with supporters marking 2 months on strike at @EmbassySuites @HiltonHotels Pioneer Square - the longest hotel strike in Washington history.

If we don't get no contract, you don't get no peace!

[UNITE HERE! Local 8 @UniteHereLocal8]

ON STRIKE FOR TWO MONTHS at the Embassy Suites by Hilton Pioneer Square!

Join us this Thursday for a picket line to celebrate the courage and commitment of the strikers. 4:30-6p at 255 S King St in Seattle.

[UNITE HERE! Local 8 @UniteHereLocal8]

TURN OUT this Thursday, Aug 20 - Picket line with striking Embassy Suites workers commemorating TWO MONTHS on strike.

It’s up to us to fight back. Will you join us?

[UNITE HERE! Local 8 @UniteHereLocal8]

Nearly 2 months on strike and still union strong.

[UNITE HERE! Local 8 @UniteHereLocal8]

Don’t get stuck @ a struck hotel

Embassy Suites management told one customer during the strike: “The safety and security of our guests and their belongings is something we take very seriously, and we regret that you left feeling otherwise.”

Boycott this hotel until workers win!

[UNITE HERE! Local 8 @UniteHereLocal8]

Seattle - if @HiltonHotels welcomes ICE to stay at its hotels, do you feel welcome?

[UNITE HERE! Local 8 @UniteHereLocal8]

What’s it like to stay at a hotel where workers have been on strike for 50 days?

Embassy Suites management apologized to guests for “disruptions & temporary service charges.”

Don’t check in, CHECK OUT. We’re calling for a boycott of this hotel until workers win a fair contract.

[UNITE HERE! Local 8 @UniteHereLocal8]

Now @HiltonHotels won’t promise to tell us if ICE comes to Embassy Suites by Hilton Seattle Downtown.

Workers need to protect ourselves from harassment or worse. We’ve been on strike for 50 days to win it.

BOYCOTT THIS HOTEL UNTIL STRIKERS WIN OUR CONTRACT!

[UNITE HERE! Local 8 @UniteHereLocal8]

ARE HILTON HOTELS nICE HOTELS??

During the Minneapolis ICE surge, @HiltonHotels said ICE agents were welcome to stay at its hotels – they even removed their brand and loyalty program from one hotel after it cancelled agents’ bookings.
