Donald Trump’s company has agreed to pay a ridiculously small fine after being found guilty by the National Labor Relations Board of trying to bust a potential union at his hotel in Las Vegas and retaliating against the workers who tried to organize one.





Just a few hours before he officially accepts the presidential nomination of the Republican party, Donald Trump agreed to pay a $11,200 federal settlement for retaliating against workers who voted to unionize at his eponymous Las Vegas hotel. Trump, who claims he “never settles” when sued, agreed to pay the workers after the National Labor Relations Board found that Trump’s corporation had unfairly challenged the union vote and illegally retaliated against the workers who led the organization effort. Trump must now pay back wages to two workers, one of whom the hotel fired and another who was denied a promotion for convincing her 500-plus co-workers to join the Culinary Workers Union in Las Vegas. Under the terms of the settlement, Trump did not admit breaking federal labor laws.

Time and again at the RNC we’ve heard from speakers, including a Teamsters rep from NYC, that Donald Trump supports the working man and will get them all good, high-paying jobs. Meanwhile, Trump himself has declared that wages are too high and he has tried to bust a union every time workers for his companies have tried to build one. It’s a baldfaced lie.
