Last week, nearly 200 Local 25 leaders gathered to plan for the years ahead and kick-off our fight for permanent daily-room cleaning legislation! The legislation, which Local 25 advocated for last year, requires hotels to clean occupied rooms every day, unless the guest opts out. This law ensures housekeepers get hours, that their jobs are manageable, and that our industry standards stay strong as tourists come back.
Just a few days after our rally, the Council passed a 225 day-extension of the law! Now, we’re preparing to advocate for a long-term solution that protects our jobs, our bodies, and the industry as a whole.
For more details. check out these photos from the rally, as well as some news coverage on Telemundo and in the Washington Business Journal!
