400 Boston hotel workers strike for three days to protest heavy workloads and low wages.

Around 400 hotel workers from four Boston hotels began a three-day strike on Thursday, following a previous walkout by nearly 1,000 workers. Represented by Unite Here Local 26, they are protesting heavy workloads and wages that do not meet living costs. This strike is part of a broader national trend, with thousands of hospitality workers striking this summer to address similar grievances, despite the hotel industry's significant profits. The strike ends Saturday at 11 PM.
