Workers in Kennedy Center Garages Vote for Union!
The 30 parking workers and shuttle bus drivers who work for the Kennedy Center won representation with HERE Local 27, Parking and Service Workers Union, in an election on Feb. 27. The vote was 25 to 4. Local 27 organizer Alex Zwerdling credits the overwhelming victory to the extremely strong and committed worker organizing committee. Local 27 thanks the other unions at the Kennedy Center for their support and looks forward to continuing to work with the Kennedy Center Union Council.
