Hager also spoke about embattled Missouri Governor Eric Greitens, who is fighting a battle to institute So-Called “Right to Work.” Greitens, who is dealing with a criminal inquiry that broadened beyond allegations of sexual blackmail that first surfaced in early January, is doing all he can to make Missouri a Right to Work state.
On the Ohio political front, Hager said every couple of months, the C/COBCTC sponsors a Central Ohio Labor Council luncheon, where a friend of labor – Republican or Democrat – talk about issues important to labor organizations. He also talked about the continuing need to build a bi-partisan building trades coalition in the Ohio House and Senate.
