Alamo employees worked with United Auto Workers Local 2179 and this week voted to unionize, with nearly two-thirds in favor.
They join Alamo employees at the Brooklyn theater, who voted last month to become part of Local 2179.
At a time of labor action in the movie industry and beyond, union activity is expanding at movie theaters themselves, a trend which began during the pandemic.
Within days, Brooklyn employees voted to unionize, by a margin of more than 2-to-1.
“For years the workers of Brooklyn Alamo have tried to solve problems through dialogue with management, to no avail,” the union statement read in part.
