Big episode this week as Trump's war on workers has taken an extremely literal turn. First we've got headlines from Providence, Western Washington, Genoa, Argentina, and Ecuador. Doctors continue to unionize in record numbers, and this week we cover two recent victories. The Washington DC City Council jettisoned democracy to attack tipped workers this week, halting an already approved wage increase at the behest of restaurant owners. Over 150,000 grocery workers with the UFCW and Teamsters are gearing up for what could be the biggest grocery strikes in years. Finally, we discuss the powerful uprising by the working people of Los Angeles in response to raids by the ICE terrorist organization against migrant workers, the false imprisonment of SEIU California's president, and the necessity for unified action to end these brutal attacks on our communities.
