FAIRFIELD, CT A Fairfield eatery recently closed, and ownership is citing an inability to find workers as the cause, according to multiple reports.
Blue Cactus Grill operated for over two years in the 2400 block of Black Rock Turnpike, News12 reported, but the restaurant shut down after struggling for eight months to hire enough employees, according to Connecticut-based think tank the Yankee Institute for Public Policy. We were forced to close simply because we were unable to staff the business, said a message that was posted on the Blue Cactus Grill website and later changed, according to the Yankee Institute, which published the post.

Democrats in the Connecticut Senate voted to approve a bill that would give public-sector unions easier access to new or existing employees and their personal information.
Organized labor in the state has pressed Democrats to approve Senate Bill 908 to offset some of the effects of the U.S. Supreme Court’s 2018 decision in
Janus v. AFSCME, which prohibited public sector unions from compelling non-members to pay dues because it violated their First Amendment rights.
In addition, the Court clarified that workers must give affirmative consent to surrender their First Amendment right not to financially support unions.
The legislation, titled “An Act Concerning Access to Certain Public Employees by the Exclusive Bargaining Representative of a Public Employer Bargaining Unit,” was approved Thursday by the state Senate, 22-13, and will now be taken up by the state House.
