HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) — The United Auto Workers Union is trying to organize the approximately 1,400 table games workers and poker dealers at the Mohegan Sun Casino nearly five years after organizing employees at the neighboring Foxwoods Resort Casino.

An assistant regional director of the union, Ted Feng, said Tuesday that workers want to win pay and benefits at least as good as workers at the unionized Foxwoods. He said workers approached the union, which began a campaign on July 6 to sign people up.
