A two and a half year contract battle continues between Disney hotel workers and Disneyland as 325 union members and sympathizers protested in front of Disneyland this week. The marchers wore Mickey Mouse masks with black eyes, intended to represent the union's message that "Disney is the black eye of Anaheim."

This dispute affects 2,100 Disney hotel employees who have been pushing for lower health care costs.

In a response from Disneyland, spokeswoman Suzi Brown said, "It's unfortunate that the union continues to focus its energy on protesting rather than ensuring its members have the security of a contract."
