California Disney characters are unionizing decades after Florida peers. Hollywood plays a role

The organizing effort comes more than four decades after their peers at Disney's parks in Florida joined a union. Why now for the California character performers? A lot of it has to do with the Disneyland Resort workersβ proximity to Hollywood.
