Our labor news is somewhat overshadowed this week by the horrific murder of Renee Good in Minneapolis and the subsequent eruption of popular outrage nationwide. When we do get to our headlines, we've got stories from North Carolina Public Schools, the National Institutes of Health, NYC Hospitals, Telluride Colorado, Starbucks, Half Price Books, and The Animation Guild. After finally losing the epic three year long strike with journalists, the owners of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette announced plans to close the paper out of spite. The VA has been under attack since Trump came into office and a recent piece in the American Prospect reveals how the country's mental health system for veterans is being dismantled at the worst possible time. Finally, we discuss the response of organized labor to Renee Good's murder and the need for a nationwide movement to end ICE terror.
