Mark Lawrence and Ben Reichley host Robert Garrett, President and CEO, Greater Susquehanna Valley Chamber of Commerce, and Art Thomas, Chairman GSVCC, President Meck-Tech and Diversified Construction Inc., with their reaction to the latest US and PA jobless numbers and have updates on the local labor market. Also, Tina Earnest, Human Resources Manager, US Federal Bureau of Prisons, in a discussion about recruiting and retaining a qualified workforce. We ask about the ages of workers, the requirements for working for the BOP and what jobs are open.
During open phones, we discussed why the US Mexico border is open, how Pres. Biden signaled to Central American residents (and gave them a free T-shirt), why customs agencies are not longer saying ‘no’ to people who want in, why ‘catch and release’ is in use again, why the wall was opened, and why Dems can’t agree on a comprehensive immigration policy.
We also discussed Eagles Wings, COVID-19, and the $1.9 Trillion stimulus bill in the US Senate.
