Heartland Labor Forum
Heartland Labor Forum is Kansas City's only program about the workplace. It is produced by and for our working people. We have been agitating on the air since 1989. Find out who is busting unions and who is fighting back. We are a member of the Labor Radio Podcast Network #laborradiopod
The International Brotherhood of Teamsters is facing a new era of leadership and perhaps some sweeping changes. Longtime President James P. Hoffa is retiring and the election for his successor is hotly contested. Find out more this Thursday on the Heartland Labor Forum. Then, the National Labor Relations Board sets the basic rules for union organizing and bargaining. Under Trump, it stripped rights from unions giving more power to big business. We’ll talk to former NLRB Chairman Mark Gaston Pearce to find out what Biden’s labor board is doing. Tune in Thursday at 6pm, rebroadcast Friday at 5am.
