Rick Smith speaks with Alex Lawson, Executive Director of Social Security Works, about how the Trump administration’s government lockout is being used to undermine and ultimately dismantle Social Security under the guise of saving it. Later, Patrick Crowley, President of the Rhode Island AFL-CIO, discusses his organization’s lawsuit against the Trump EPA, aimed at restoring funding for the Solar for All program. Crowley explains the program’s critical role in expanding renewable energy access and creating union jobs, and why protecting it is essential for both environmental progress and economic justice in Rhode Island and beyond.
