Democratic congressional leader Nancy Pelosi is pushing for a quick resolution of the San Francisco hotel strike . She says it has national implications. She joins San Francisco Gavin Newsome in urging a fast and just settlement because they say the reputation of San Francisco and its economy are both being hurt by the strike and lockout. Pelosi urged the hotel owners not to let this strike “become the harbinger of a nationwide hotel dispute”. Health care costs, pensions and wages are among the issues in the strike. In Seattle meanwhile, hotel workers' contracts are coming up for renegotiation in December. Several labor leaders were arrested this week at a labor rally in Seattle when they lay down in front of the city’s Westin hotel in protest.
