Listen "Public Defenders Nearly Strike, Postal Privatization Protest and the World Honors Ozzy’s Life"
Episode Synopsis
This month, around 2,000 New York legal service workers have been organizing to get pay raises and other benefits. If the lawyers strike, it could interrupt courts all across the city. WFUV’s Adithi Vimalanathan has more on current negotiations. The United States Postal Service has not been profitable since 2007 and reported a net loss of $9.5 billion last year. Some say it’s time for mail reform or to privatize the agency. But some postal workers are speaking out against privatization. WFUV’s Joseph Vizza reports. In this week’s music news, Mon Rovîa speaks with WFUV about his new EP. Celebrities honor Ozzy Osbourne’s legacy. Plus, the lineup for this year’s Global Citizen Festival is announced.
