In this episode of Curry Café, the panel explores the significance of the Labor Day holiday and the key issues surrounding it, such as unions, workplace safety, and wages. Hosted by Ray Gary, who also produces two popular music shows on KCIW, the discussion brings together a diverse group of voices. Bret Cecil, a candidate for Oregon State Representative (1st District), Robert O’Sullivan, a Brookings resident with a background in Democratic politics and education, and Rick McNamer, a dedicated KCIW board member and volunteer, offer their insights on the labor movement and its ongoing challenges.

We encourage anyone with differing views to participate in future Curry Café discussions. If you’re interested in joining the panel, email contact@kciw.org or call 541-661-4098.
