Maintain That Plane Where? and Media Sleeps Through Democracy Awakening

Do you know where the plane you fly is maintained? Why is Senator Claire McCaskill asking TSA if they inspect and enforce safety standards in foreign airline maintenance bases? This week on the Heartland Labor Forum, we’ll talk to Ed Wytkind of the AFL-CIO’s Transportation Trades Department. Then, last month hundreds of people were arrested on the steps of the U.S. Capitol in Democracy Spring and Democracy Awakening. Did you hear anything about it in the news? Was the media asleep or blacked out? All this Thursday at 6pm, rebroadcast Friday at 5am.
