The Congressional Review Act resolution (H.J. Res. 116) has been approved by a 21-13 vote and is now headed to the full House for consideration. However, due to the current Democrat-controlled Senate, it is unlikely to pass.

Every day, hundreds of people gather at different locations around Denver, waiting to be picked up for work. These people are known as day laborers. Unfortunately, it is common for them to not receive payment for their work, or to receive less than the agreed payment. They need to know that Denver's wage theft laws protect them. To learn more about how day laborers can take steps to protect themselves from wage theft and how Denver Labor can help get this money back, visit https://lnkd.in/gKUu_xaE.

In this week’s column, I argue that the intense political focus on the “17,000 extra public servants under Labour” is misguided, for a couple of reasons. First, numbers don’t mean much out of context. In the same period, the country’s total workforce increased by over 300,000, and core public servants, as a proportion of that workforce, rose from 1.9% to 2.2% – hardly a massive increase. It’s also true, conversely, that public servant numbers increased by over 2,500 in the last six months of last year alone, so the cuts announced to date don’t represent a seismic shift in the size of government (even if they are painful for individuals and their families). But all this pales into comparison beside the real point, which is not what abstract number we seize on as the “right” size of government, but what we want public servants to do (and how well we want them to do it). If, as I think, we will face an ever-growing number of collective public problems in future, we are likely to need more public servants to deal with them. And that, in turn, suggests we should be redeploying the existing public-sector workforce, rather than firing it en masse – as well, of course, as finding ways to make government work better.

As posted in Shelburne's community business newsletter, too. Town Manager Matt’s 124 words in 2024: April 17 Today begins the Town’s negotiations for renewal of our collective bargaining agreement with the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees. AFSCME is the nation’s largest public sector union, with 3,400 councils across 46 states. I look forward to working together for a stronger, healthier community. Nationally, the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ latest report counts 14.4 million American workers in unions, exactly 10.0% of the total labor force. This is down from 17.7 million unionized workers in 1983, 20.1% of the total. Today’s union membership is pretty evenly split between public sector (7.0 million) and private sector (7.4 million). Vermont’s unionization rate is 14.3%, above average but lower than New York. The job sectors with the greatest union membership are teaching/library, and police/corrections.
