Hundreds of union workers rallied outside the Shedd Aquarium, demanding fair wages and benefits as part of a growing labor movement in Chicago’s cultural institutions. Workers say management has prioritized legal battles over pay, while union leaders call proposed contracts insulting—especially after years of dedication. Despite the aquarium’s claims of good-faith bargaining, workers argue they’re paid far less than peers at similar venues, making it hard to afford basic living costs. The core dispute centers on hourly wages and raises that don’t match rising costs, exposing a deeper clash between corporate budgets and worker needs.
