☆ 'Barbenheimer' Was a Boon to Movie Theaters and a Headache for Many Workers. So They're Unionizing
  + stars: | 2023-10-13 | by ( Associated Press | Oct. | At A.M. | ) www.usnews.com   time to read: +7 min
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.
