More than 50,000 workers prepared to strike if they don’t come to an agreement with casinos by June 1. UNLV law professor Ruben Garcia tells the Las Vegas Review Journal the last strike in 1984 caused major impacts, including more than $75 million in losses in wages and benefits. In today’s dollars that’s about $250 million. Local and state governments also faces losses of millions from the impact on tourism.
