Does anyone remember this?
HuffPost Politics
A powerful Las Vegas labor union said Thursday that staffers of the Bernie Sanders campaign wore union pins in order to gain access to employee areas at four of the citys unionized hotels.
Culinary Workers Union Local 226, an affiliate of Unite Here, said it was disappointed and offended by what it suggested was an unethical move by the Vermont independents campaign. The union, powerful in Nevada politics, hasnt yet endorsed a candidate in the presidential race, and the Democratic candidates have all been wooing the union in hopes of securing its support.
