Las Vegas: Union-backed no taxes on tips policy attracts unlikely fan — nonunion Red Rock Resorts
Red Rock Resorts and Culinary Workers Union Local 226, which have been engaged in a decades-long feud, found common ground over presidential campaign pledges that would remove taxes on tipped wages.
The locals casino operator and the state’s largest labor organization agree it would benefit Las Vegas hospitality industry workers.
But that’s where the commonality ends.
Red Rock Resorts executives said last week the tax reduction would provide more money for discretionary consumer spending, which would benefit the casino operator. But Culinary leadership clamped back on the comments, saying Red Rock employees, who lack union contracts, wouldn’t see any benefits from the company’s financial windfall.
