The State of Our Unions. It's Mixed.

Labor unions got us: The 40-hour work week. The Weekend. Pensions. Employer Health Coverage. Vacations. But the sustained GOP jihad on Unions has hurt. Bill talks to former NYT Labor reporter Steven Greenhouse about his new book, Beaten Down, Worked Up: The Past, Present, and Future of American Labor. Plus Bill's take on the Nevada Caucus and how the party needs to think, not about stopping Bernie, but figuring out how to win with him. Today's Bill Press Pod is sponsored by all the fine labor unions that support the Bill Press Pod: LIUNA, (LIUNA.org) The Ironworkers, ( Ironworkers.org) Sheet Metal, Air, Rail and Transportation Workers, (smart-union.org) The Steelworkers, (USW.org)The United Food and Commercial Workers, (UFCW.org)The Teamsters, (Teamster.org) and The American Federation of Teachers ( AFT.org ). We thank them for their support.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
