Description

We’re at a unique moment when it comes to wages and the labor market. Historic numbers of U.S. workers in lower wage sectors like leisure and hospitality are quitting. And that's part of why we’re on the path to a record number of wage increases across the country as we head into 2022.

Plus, the pulse of the nation ahead of January 6th.

And, backlash against the term Latinx.
