Episode 50: Fight for $15 protests return with ties to the civil rights movement

from The Working Lunch · host Align Public Strategies

The Fight for $15 is back with protests scheduled in the coming days and the message is closely tied to the civil rights movement. What’s at stake as the debate heads further into a conversation about equality and human rights? As that is playing out, a lot more information about the actual pay disparity between CEOs and rank and file workers is being revealed publicly and the early numbers pose a public relations headache for companies. Finally, from the Align crew, Amazon, JP Morgan and Warren Buffett’s company, Berkshire Hathaway are taking matters into their own hands with healthcare, giving them a much more important seat at the policy table. Those stories plus the legislative scorecard.
