The GM Strike is in its third week, the UAW starts to pay out strike benefits while plants in Mexico begin to close.

Tesla gets caught union-busting and so does a Mentos plant in Bangladesh. They even had kids as young of 12 working there.

Unions are calling on Congress to pass the PRO Act and Senator Sherrod Brown wants to create a system to protect workers who lose their jobs due to automation.

Plus we have Will C in from On the Board Sports to talk about Mickey Callaway getting fired, the baseball playoffs, and who is going to win this Sunday.
