Happy Hour with Hightower, Rick Levy (TX AFL-CIO) and Beaumont USW Workers

While ExxonMobil holds out for huge changes to seniority, safety, and layoffs, the massively profitable corporation has locked out 650 workers in Beaumont, TX--and with no paychecks for eight weeks, the workers are hurting. On our next Lowdown Happy Hour, we're meeting up with a few of the workers as well as Rick Levy, president of the Texas AFL-CIO. The convo will shed light on what's a stake, for these workers and for the country.
