Workers, including Pregnant women, forced to work after chemical spill
I'm joined by Kim Keller, Teamsters Human Right's Activist and David Kimbrue, who is a worker fired from Taylor Farms for Union Activities. We discuss a recent chemical spill at Taylor Farms in which management failed to evacuate the plant. During the incident, workers who complained about overpowering fumes were given dust masks and told to keep working. They suffered nose-bleeds, dizziness, vomiting and fainting. Among those taken away in ambulances, two were pregnant women. (http://tinyurl.com/pdoak8l)
