Downtown hotel workers strike ahead of Chicago Marathon
Original: Workers at downtown hotels go on strike ahead of Chicago Marathon
Hotel workers at downtown Chicago properties have gone on strike just ahead of the Chicago Marathon, one of the city's biggest annual events. The walkout affects hotels that would be at peak occupancy during race weekend. It is the latest action in an ongoing labor dispute, though specific demands and which hotels are affected were not detailed in initial reports.
Why now: The strike coincides with the Chicago Marathon, when hotel demand and public attention are at their highest.
