Quote:Leaders of Local 226 of the Culinary Workers Union also urged members to go to work. The union is Las Vegas’s largest hospitality union, representing 50,000 workers, of which 40 percent are Hispanic.
Why Local 226?
Local 226 is the name of the union branch in that workplace. It was possibly the 226th branch of that union to be established. In the USA, workplace trade union branches are often called something like "Piemakers Union Local 123".
