10,000 Las Vegas casino workers say they are considering going on strike over Obamacare. March 20, Nevada's biggest union, the Culinary Union Local 226, says it will vote to grant the union the right to strike.
"The biggest hurdle to reaching settlements in Vegas is the new costs imposed on our health plan by Obamacare," Unite Here President Donald Taylor.
The threat of an almost 10,000-person union strike is merely the latest example of unions' rebuke of Obamacare.

Reid will have to do something unless he plans to retire.
