Ohio AFL-CIO President Tim Burga was one of two featured guests on today’s episode of the AWF Union Podcast. Burga joined the show to discuss supporting the passage of the PRO Act and how support for the PRO Act has created solidarity amongst union members. He also discussed gerrymandering and voter suppression laws in Ohio.
Also featured was ProPublica Contributing Writer Jenny Deam. She discussed the surprisingly low vaccination rate amongst nursing home workers, despite the toll it places on residents and staff during the pandemic. Deam also speculated on whether employers can mandate vaccines.
