More than 100 people stood outside the courthouse Monday, with union apparel filling up much of the crowd: SEIU-branded shirts, Culinary Union hats and an umbrella from the LiUNA union. SEIU represents health care and public employees; Culinary is the state's largest union and represents hospitality service workers; LiUNA represents construction workers.

Culinary Local 226 Secretary-Treasurer Ted Pappageorge said that Nevada’s unions needed to stick together to resist the Trump administration’s immigration policy.
“They want reactions. We’re going to give them a reaction, all right,” Pappageorge said.“We’re going to build this organization and we’re going to go after these right-wing extremists.”
“We’re going to tell Trump his term is only two years,” he added, referencing the 2026 midterms.
