Timely and accessible: Labor is in the mainstream news in a way it hasn't been for a long time. Barely a week goes by without news of a strike or a new union. This book, aimed at the reader who is only passingly familiar with labor organizing, provides a very readable, accessible guide to why this is happening.

Project 2025: The proposal targets union protections such as: overtime pay laws, health and safety protections, the federal minimum wage, unemployment. As the government attempts to undermine these long-standing guarantees, Kamper will be well position to respond to each effort.

Outreach: Print and egalley distribution to trade and consumer media, radio and podcast campaign.

TNP Track in Field: New Press books on labor have traditionally sold very well: History of America in Ten Strikes sold over 14,000 copies across editions; Lexicon of Labor sold over 15,000 copies across editions.
