Tens of thousands of hospitality workers who keep the iconic casinos and hotels of Las Vegas humming were set to vote Tuesday on whether to authorize a strike amid ongoing contract negotiations.
There's been increased labor organizing in recent years across multiple industries -- from strikes to work stoppages -- and Tuesday's vote will take place on the same day President Joe Biden joined United Auto Workers strikers on a picket line in Michigan.

The union last voted to authorize a strike in 2018. Five-year contracts were reached soon after a majority of the participating 25,000 hospitality workers cast votes to walk off the job.
