As The Hotel Strike Winds Down A New Strike Pops Up In The West Loop

As the hotel workers’ strike winds down, another union is ramping up a strike of its own. Members of the Painters District Council #14 launched a picket Monday at 1000 W. Washington, where the owners of the building, Lieberman Management Company, have contracted a nonunion company, CertaPro Painters.

   “It just made me feel great that people are standing up fighting for working-class people to receive better than what they’re getting now.”
