Signs that Employee Activism is Growing

September 18, 2019

Union workers striking at General Motors and the ongoing push for a higher minimum wage may be a sign of a new era of worker activism.

Van Horn is the director and distinguished professor of public policy at the Rutgers John J. Heldrich Center for Workforce Development.
