Teamsters Local 135 union leaders claim at least one Horseshoe Indianapolis casino worker was fired in retaliation for supporting employees who are on strike. The recent termination comes after nearly 150 workers went on strike late last week.

Around 150 Indiana casino workers started a strike Friday against Horseshoe Indianapolis in Shelbyville.

Over 200 casino workers in Central Indiana overwhelmingly voted to authorize a strike for union recognition. The Hoosier workers are also demanding better short-term disability pay, increased wages and safer parking lots. The vote to authorize a strike does not mean workers will strike.
