Labor leader expects easier relations after Gingrich exit
AFL CIO president John Sweeney says relations with a Republican Congress could improve under Rep. Livingston. He notes Livingston’s past chairmanship of the Appropriations Committee showed less tendency to weaken worker protections. He urges focus on working families issues and opposes impeachment, while pushing for wage hikes and Social Security protections. The interview also covers tariffs, steel industry pressures, and Wal-Mart labor concerns.
