On The Rick Smith Show, Rick first welcomes Labor Attorney David Borer to analyze Trump’s OPM rebranded Schedule F policy, which threatens federal workers by stripping collective bargaining rights, making thousands vulnerable to arbitrary firing and weakening protections for whistleblowers and workplace safety. Rick spotlights a rare bipartisan moment, as five Republican lawmakers sign on to defend collective bargaining rights, emphasizing that the issue transcends party lines and affects working families nationwide.​

Later, Laurel Kilgour, Research Manager at the American Economic Liberties Project, joins to discuss the newly released "Capital Crunch" report, which offers bold solutions to tackle the worsening housing crisis and expand economic opportunity for ordinary Americans.​
