International visitors to one of the world’s largest tourist destinations dropped 13% in June as workers face layoffs
The Trump administration’s immigration policies are affecting workers and driving, in part, a decline in tourism, including international tourists, to Las Vegas, according to workers and the largest labor union in the state of Nevada.
Visitors to Las Vegas overall dropped 11.3% in June 2025, compared to the same month last year. According to the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority, international visitors to one of the world’s largest tourist destinations dropped 13% in June.
“A lot of departments are having a lot of layoffs,” said Norma Torres, a housekeeper for eight years at Mandalay Bay and a member of the Culinary Union, who has worked in the hospitality industry since she was 18 years old. “In the housekeeping department, the people on call are barely called into work.”
Hey it’s also the reality for anyone with citizenship in the United Shitheads of Amerikkka.
As someone who lives in an area with snow I’d like to say that snow really sucks to deal with. The only good thing I have to say about it is that fresh snow looks pretty. Otherwise it’s a pain in the ass to deal with. When shoveling it to clear paths you realize how heavy it can be. Black ice in the winter is also a pain, can hardly tell there is ice there but you will slip all the same.
I love my snow here, but it is getting less and less over the years 🥺
Grass is always greener on the other side :)
We’ve had few big floods over the last few years which washed out whole roads but generally we don’t really consider the negative effects of a constantly wet or frozen environment.
Everything is just dry. Including skin :S
