Description

From New York, to Chicago, to Seattle, to here in Vermont, workers are fed up with low pay, no benefits, and intimidation by bosses.  While the richest in our society sit on a hoard of billions of dollars, most of us don't even have the right to take the day off if we're sick.  Enough is Enough!  Panelists speak to the issues:  Trish Kahle, Workers' Organizing Committee of Chicago - Tristin Adie, Vermont Federation of Nurses and Health Professionals - Tina Escaja, United Academics - Tom Kingston (st. Michael's College Staff) - CCTA Bus Drivers (Teamsters) - Sodexo food service worker (Vermont Fair Food Campaign)
