Transportation Workers Under Attack
A Panel Discussion
The deregulation of the airline industry by President Carter was the opening shot to
destroy organized labor in the airline industry. It continued with the strike breaking at
PATCO which included jailing by President Reagan and continued with deregulation
in trucking and many other transportation areas. Professor Joseph A. McCartin, author of
Collision Course, The Air Traffic Controllers, and the Strike That Changed America
and transportation workers from northern California will be on the panel.
These include Dorian Maxwell, TWU 250 A OSHA whistleblower, UAL worker and others.
