Labor Day: President Trump’s Complicated Relationship With Unions

from The Fox News Rundown · host FOX News Podcasts

This Labor Day, President Trump is touting a manufacturing comeback. He's highlighting auto companies and big-name corporations investing more in U.S. production. But critics argue many of those plans were in motion before he took office, and union leaders accuse him of being the “biggest union buster.” Presidential historian and senior fellow at the Ronald Reagan Institute, Tevi Troy, joins the Rundown to break down the politics of labor and what’s next for unions in America. For those with spinal cord injuries, it seems your entire life can change in an instant. After her freak skiing accident decades ago, Amanda Boxtel is doing better than just getting by. She’s become one of the first people to start using an exoskeleton for mobility and has founded Bridging Bionics—a nonprofit that aims to provide free or affordable mobility solutions so that those who are paralyzed may walk again. FOX’s Benjamin Hall brings the Rundown just a part of his inspiring conversation with Amanda Boxtel. To hear the full episode and more like it, check out the Searching For Heroes podcast. Plus, commentary by Vice President of Communications for Focus on The Family, Paul Batura. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
