Democratic presidential candidates soon will start descending on Los Angeles for Thursday’s presidential debate — if a labor dispute is resolved.
Unite Here Local 11, which represents cooks, dishwashers, cashiers and other workers, said that contract negotiations will resume Tuesday with Sodexo, which contracts with Loyola Marymount University for food services. Last week, all seven presidential candidates who have qualified for Thursday’s debate said they would boycott the event if the union pickets and the labor situation is unresolved.
“We look forward to continuing negotiations with Sodexo on Tuesday or sooner in hopes of reaching an agreement before Thursday’s debate,” Susan Minato, co-president of the local, said in a statement.
In the meantime, some of the candidates are taking the opportunity of an L.A. visit to raise money.
Pete Buttigieg has two fundraisers scheduled for Tuesday, including a breakfast in Beverly Hills with tickets starting at $500 per person.
