Trump Entertainment Loses Bid to Silence Union Campaign
Source: Nasdaq
A bankruptcy judge has refused to shield what is left of Donald Trump's former Atlantic City, N.J., casino empire from union protests.
Judge Kevin Gross said in a decision issued Tuesday that when it comes to a campaign meant to warn potential customers of the Trump Taj Mahal that workers are unhappy, federal labor laws protect the workers. The ruling comes after months of street demonstrations led by Unite Here Local 54, the union that represents workers that lost health care and other benefits due to the financial distress of Trump Entertainment Resorts Inc.
Trump Entertainment is operating under chapter 11 bankruptcy protection with a single gambling hall still in business, the Taj Mahal. Mr. Trump hasn't been actively involved in the casino operation for years.
The dispute brought before Judge Gross centered on a campaign by the union representing many Trump Taj Mahal workers to inform customers of the labor issues and urge them to take their business elsewhere.
