Workers and community leaders will organize a press conference in front of the Long Beach Hilton on Thursday (Sept. 3) and ask the community to boycott the hotel "until management agrees to honor the workers' rights to decide whether to form a union in a manner," according to United Here! Local 11, the group representing the workers.

Steve Neal, 9th District City Council candidate and executive director of the Labor Community Services Food and Emergency Program is expected to be at the event.
