CORRECTION: On some broadcasts of this show, the speaker at the April 8 press conference by the Labor Education Project on AFL-CIO International Operations (LEPAIO) is misidentified. The speaker was Eric Gjertsen, an organizer with the project. We regret the error and always strive for accuracy. The show is made possible only by our volunteer energy, our resolve to keep the people's voices on the air, and by support from our listeners.
