Labor Day is that special day of the year when we celebrate the victories of the labor movement by enjoying a day of relaxation, before jumping back into the fray of fighting to protect the rights and benefits of working people. In recognition of this auspicious day we hear from Chris Erikson, the Business Manager for IBEW Local 3 and Grand Marshall for this years’ NYC Labor Day parade, being held on September 6th. Chris urges workers to join and become active in the labor movement or lose what they have. Chris is joined by Peter Meringolo, Chair of the Public Employee Conference and Richard Mulvaney, a noted labor attorney. They urge unions to support one another to keep the labor movement strong. Next we hear from Assemblyman Peter Abbate, a ling-time champion for Government Employees, for an update on public employee issues and a discussion of the Triborough Amendment, a labor provision under attack by some government officials
