Rio dealers pursue union
June 5, 2008 - 9:00 pm
The casino dealers at the Rio filed a petitioned Tuesday with the National Labor Relations Board for a representation vote to unionize under Las Vegas Dealers Local 721, an affiliate of the Transport Workers Union of America.
A response from the labor board will take about a month before a vote date will be set.
The union also organized at Wynn Las Vegas and Caesars Palace in 2007 but has yet to secure a pact at either casino.
