Contract negotiations with casinos have failed to deliver agreement

Atlantic City casino workers are ready to walk off the job if they don’t get a new contract. Members of Local 54 of the Unite Here union voted almost unanimously Wednesday night to authorize a strike if no deal is reached by the beginning of July. Contracts with the Borgata and the three casinos owned by Caesars Entertainment — Caesars, Harrah's and Tropicana — expired more than two weeks ago.
