March 22 will be called “Massachusetts’ Reopening Day,” according to Governor Charlie Baker and will be the deadline for hotels to declare their plans to retain furloughed workers.  According to a press release from Unite Here, not a single hotel has stepped forward.  At the Marriott Copley and Revere Hotel, many workers have been permanently fired and must reapply if they wish to come back.  In response, the Hotel Comeback Bill is being introduced in the Massachusetts House and Senate.  On March 23, Unite Here will be supporting hotel workers with a press conference and picket line.
