Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascón launches investigation after several California hotels accused of hiring migrants from Skid Row amid 15,000 unionized employees strike.
Some California hotels are accused of hiring migrants from Skid Row as union workers went on strike, according to the Los Angeles district attorney's office, prompting an investigation from a Soros-backed DA. Skid Row is a 54-block area in Downtown Los Angeles and is one of the largest stable populations of homeless people in the United States and has been known for its condensed homeless population since at least the 1930s.
The announcement followed allegations raised by the Los Angeles Times that numerous hotels in the LA area were employing migrants after 15,000 unionized employees began striking at 60 hotels. It went on to accuse hotels of not providing breaks or properly documenting hours. Employers have reportedly scrambled to fill those positions vacated by striking employees, allegedly going so far as recruiting migrants from Skid Row, according to the LA Times.
