Strikes seize LA. And so do UFOs?
Manage episode 372375455 series 2865856
While workers battle for wages on the ground, our representatives look to the sky - is it a bird, is it a plane, or is it a UFO?
California Rep. Robert Garcia was the leading Democrat on the subcommittee held on Unidentified Aerial Phenomena. He said the American people deserved transparency.
"Inside the Issues: The Podcast" hosts Alex Cohen and Sara Sadhwani ask whether you believe. Do you believe the truth is out there? Do you believe those striking will get what they're asking for?
UPS workers already have, and they're on the verge of avoiding a strike. Their deal just needs to be ratified with a vote. But the hot labor summer continues, as hotel workers continue with a third wave of their strike that's having some unintended consequences.
This week, protesters showed up at the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors meeting just like they have at the LA City Council meetings. And a newly elected council member is calling for more decorum.
And finally, a former employee at the Federation of Labor is being investigated in connection with the City Hall leaked tapes.
