Labor is included in the Madison version of the national No Kings march and rally, workers at Madison's Group Health Cooperative who are trying to win a union rally on Madison's east side, and a GHC member describes a union-supporting member-worker slate for GHC board elections ending June 22, national labor leaders Randi Weingarten of the AFT and Lee Saunders of AFSCME quit the Democratic National Committee, we hear voices from a Juneteenth celebration in Sun Prairie, a lawsuit is filed to protect the federal Job Corps, and supporters of the Department of Labor's Women's Bureau fight to maintain that 105-year-old agency.
