Standing in front of a sculpture spelling out the word “Love” in the Palazzo-Venetian waterfall atrium, Acting U.S. Labor Secretary Julie Su compared the Culinary Union Local 226’s first contract with the Venetian and Palazzo to a marriage.

“I’ve never known workers that are trying to organize a union because they don’t want to work with their employer,” Su said Thursday at a contract celebration. “They want the employer to do well, and that shared success is the … future of the romance that you all solidified here today”…

With 99% of workers voting to ratify the contract on Aug. 27, the Strip’s casinos are now 100% union.
