The Rick Smith Show 9-7-2017

Bill Scher, Contributing Editor at Politico Magazine joins Rick to discuss the surprise decision by President Trump to side with Democrats in agreeing to a short-term increase in the debt ceiling and Hurricane Harvey funding without demanding a pound of flesh from working people.  

Dave Jamieson, labor reporter for Huffington Post joins Rick to talk about a recent letter sent to the Secretary of Labor by more than 200 Labor Lawyers around the country protesting Ronald Reagan being inducted into the department’s Hall of Honor.  They argue the Hall is reserved for people who have made the lives of working people better, and Reagan they claim does not fit that bill.

Tom Jawetz, Vice President for Immigration Policy at Center for American Progress joins Rick to explain the latest news on the Trump administrations many faces on DACA and what this vacillation means for those affected.
