Erek Slater

We chat with Erek Slater, a bus operator for the Chicago Transit Authority, where he's been working for the past 15 years, and a three-term elected shop steward and executive board member of the Amalgamated Transit Union, Local 241. We talk about Erek's working life and about why he was unjustly dismissed from his job in May for standing up for what's right.
