The Business News Headlines and More Voices 9 May 2024

Yep, we're still in Washington, D.C. as we take part in the Greater Des Moines Partnership event known as DMDC where over 200 business leaders traveled here to lobby for a host of items.  If you have not yet heard "Voices from the Flight" make sure you click through to hear what several of the attendees hope to accomplish during this event. Meanwhile if you want to reach out to us on Social Media you can hook up with us all day on Twitter or "X" @IOB_NewsHour and on Instagram. Facebook? Sure were there too.  Here's what we've got for you today:

• Farm workers and Unions made the news;
• The U.S. economy is healthy but, there is a but;
• Is China making too much...stuff?
• Tesla and another round of layoffs but this is different;
• New Jobless Data is in and what that means;
• The Wall Street Report;
• And, after 60 years, saying goodbye to the Chevy Malibu.

For the interview we selected several leaders who made the trip to Washington to share with us what they hoped to accomplish during the 55 years in the nation's capitol. If you would like to listen in, click this link.

And, thanks for being here!
