AFL-CIO attacks Trump’s record on worker issues on Labor Day

Published



AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka released a Labor Day statement on Monday that said President Trump has “assaulted” key regulations protecting workers after courting the middle class vote during the 2016 election.

“He had a good rap and a lot of workers bought onto that rap, but he really hasn’t done a good job after he got in as president,” Trumka said on CNN. “He’s assaulted just about every health and safety regulation that’s out there.”
