Workers picket outside Atlantic City casino, seeking raises


              Members of Atlantic City N.J.'s main casino workers union picket outside the Tropicana casino on Wednesday,  June 1, 2022, the day after Local 54 of the Unite Here union's contracts expired with the city's nine casinos. The union is seeking what it terms "substantial" wage increases in a new contract, arguing that as the casinos recover financially from the coronavirus pandemic, so too should their workers.
