The majority of the brothel’s 74 sex workers submitted a petition to unionize with the National Labor Relations Board last week under the name United Brothel Workers, represented by the Communications Workers of America.
But the women argue they are treated as employees. They have set schedules, they can’t work from home and they are required to charge a minimum of $1,000 per hour to their clients, Ellis said. Sheri’s Ranch gets 50% of what they earn.

Does this mean the house will have to process I-9's and keep records of the documentation?
And maybe have a voter registration booth down the hall.

Yeah. Communications workers?
Wouldn’t the purple people beaters - SEIU be a better fit?

This union will not be the first union of whores. The Democrat party was the first such union.

Interesting because, anymore, what they are selling has become more and more like Blockbuster and NetFlix is coming....
