Hotel workers marched through San Francisco Wednesday as part of the annual demonstration on May 1st or International Workers' Day but with a specific message this year to their employers ahead of summer contract negotiations. More than 1,000 workers were expected to participate in the 3 p.m. march, including janitors who work for companies around the Bay Area.
But representatives for the hotel industry say they are all losing money and the number of people traveling to the city and staying in town must come up to improve the situation for everyone. 'We need more people that come visit San Francisco. As less people are coming here, unfortunately, that results in less needs,' said Alex Bastian, the president and CEO of the Hotel Council of San Francisco.
