Michael Munk talks TPP and Union Troubles

Host Michael Morrow welcomes Michael Munk, author of The Portland Red Guide, who will provide vital, interesting and timely information about how the TPP may be not only creating strain between Pres. Obama and Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton, but between union leaders, some of whom supported Pres. Obama on the TPP and others who oppose it strenuously.

With the election barely ten weeks away union antipathy toward Sec. Clinton could spell trouble in states like Ohio, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania.

Dr. Munk will give background on the TPP, as well as provide thoughts about the election, and DC politics--per unions and TPP--in 2017.

Additional information on TPP, as well as how NAFTA has affected working families, can be found at www.aflcio.org/trade/trans-pacific-partnership-free-trade-agreement-TPP
