Leslie is joined by Roxanne Brown, the USW’s International Vice President at Large, who oversees the union’s public policy and legislative agenda as well as its political work. She has spent more than two decades advancing policies on Capitol Hill and with regulatory agencies on behalf of USW members. She has extensive experience in manufacturing, environmental and energy policy.

The two discuss how Union workers right here in the United States are making history.

Last week, workers at Blue Bird Corporation's Fort Valley, Georgia facility notched an historic victory by voting to join the USW. The approximately 1,400 Blue Bird workers manufacture school buses, including low-emission and zero-emission models, making this significant on many levels.

Leslie and Roxanne discuss those details, and more, during the remainder of the interview.
This includes talking about how the 'Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act,' the 'Inflation Reduction Act' and the 'CHIPS and Science Act ,' are all driving significant positive developments in domestic manufacturing.
