CWA’s Margaret Cook: Attacks on the Public Sector and Half-Priced Books Workers Organize

from Heartland Labor Forum · host Judy Ancel

Right-wing politicians have declared war on public employees across federal, state, and local levels, despite their hard work ensuring that essential government programs function. The Communications Workers Union represents many of these employees. This week on the Heartland Labor Forum, we’ll speak with Margaret Cook, CWA's VP for Public, Health, and Education. Then, workers at three Half-Priced Bookstores in the KC area have unionized but they’re frustrated with management stalling on their first contract.
