Rosen was a member of the Culinary Workers Union as a young cocktail waitress in the 1970s, when she was working at Caesars Palace and other casinos during the summers to help pay her way through college. She remembers waiting around in their offices for the yellow slips that directed her to her shifts. The union’s grassroots energy and organization has helped lead Democratic candidates to victory in the state in the past, and her personal connection may help channel that energy her way.
