There's trouble at the house of mouse. Jesse Russell reports:

The tranquility of Disneyland could soon be unsettled if contract negotiations continue to degrade. The current contract for workers at three Dinseyland hotels will expire at midnight tonight. Unite Here Local 681 represents 2300 workers including kitchen staff and room attendants. President Ada Brecino spoke in front of the Anaheim City Council on Tuesday and said Disney is trying to “stifle” the voice of the workers. Negotiations are being held at a neutral site, but Briceno said the site chosen by Disney has limited parking making it difficult for members to attend meetings.
