The Limits of Free Speech
Free speech is a constitutionally protected right in the United States. Nonetheless, it is not without its limits. In this blog post, we’re going to look at the specifics of the first amendment, what speech acts are or are not covered by law, and how the right to free speech is being vigorously tested by current events.
Strength in Numbers: Unions.
Unions protect workers’ rights, negotiate fair pay and benefits, and advocate for better working conditions. Sounds like something that all workers should be a part of right? Despite the no-brainer benefits of unions, membership in the United States is at an all-time low. While certain sectors still see a thriving union culture from the first half of the twentieth century, company practices and out-of-date labor laws have made it astoundingly difficult to form new unions. In this blog post, we’ll do a deep dive into the life of American unions, their current state, and discuss some much needed labor reform.
