Episode Description
Welcome to the first episode of the New England Joint Board's podcast! We're excited to be introducing a new way to speak with and hear from members (and those who are interested in the labor movement).
On this episode your hosts Kat, Mitch, & Ryan discuss Boston Mayor Marty Walsh's record as he transitions to his new role as U.S. Secretary of Labor under the Biden/Harris administration. We also interview Warren Pepicelli, NEJB Manager and UNITE HERE Executive Vice President, to hear his perspective on the labor movement - where we're coming from, and where we're going.
