On this episode of The Rick Smith Show, Rick talks with Guardian labor journalist Michael Sainato about the surge in union membership, Trump’s escalating attacks on organized labor, and why more working-class union members are running for public office to fight back. Michael connects grassroots organizing to a broader pro-worker political wave. Later, Rick is joined by James Grant, an LPN and nursing home worker, who details the organizing campaign pressuring PA Senator Dave McCormack to reject a wealthy nursing home owner’s ambassadorship to Hungary after a massive payoff to Trump’s PAC. Visit NoOnLanda.org for more information.
