First working group meeting of the Rebalancing Economic and Political Power:  A Clean Slate for the Future of Labor Law  Project

Purpose: Increasing inequality can be attributed in part to the expansion of “right to work” and declining union density, such that we need new ways to form and sustain worker organizations.  At this convening, we will debate how workers should decide whether to be represented and how workers can most effectively support the organizations that represent them.
