Southwest flight attendants sue for rights under Colorado sick leave law

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 11:22:02 GMT

DENVER (KDVR) — In their fight to use state-mandated sick leave protections, unionized Southwest flight attendants are taking their employer and the state of Colorado to court.In a lawsuit filed on Monday, the Transport Workers Union of America's Local 556 claims Colorado reached a backdoor agreement that exempts Southwest from the law — all without any airline employees present. Colorado’s paid sick leave law has expanded as of Aug. 7, 2023 "Colorado's hard-fought legislative protections for workers, consumers, tenants, the environment and the general public are worthless if powerful corporations can extract from the executive branch sweeping backroom settlements that exempt those corporations from Colorado law," the union claims in the lawsuit.The lawsuit filed Monday names Gov. Jared Polis and Southwest Airlines as defendants, along with the Colorado Department of Labor and Employment and its Division of Labor Standards and Statistics.Southwest accused of 'retaliatory' sick lea...

Russia’s ‘elections’ in occupied Ukraine are a charade

Harald Hartvig Jepsen is senior international advisor at the International Foundation for Electoral Systems (IFES). Peter Erben is principal advisor at IFES and senior country director at IFES Ukraine.On September 10, Russia’s Central Election Commission (CEC) plans to stage four regional “elections,” 79 municipality “elections” and a “by-election” to the State Duma for “new subjects of the Russian Federation.” But this is yet another of the Kremlin’s faux “elections” running roughshod over the very principle of democracy.Do not be deceived. There will be nothing free or fair about them — they are being conducted purely for propaganda purposes. The outcomes are preordained as any “election” or “plebiscite” organized by Russian President Vladimir Putin’s Kremlin: The “election” officers, as well as Russian soldiers, will see to that.In Putin’s Orwellian doublespeak, “new subjects” refers to Ukrainian territories illegally occupied by Russian forces.

Jose Butto gives up 3 runs after getting call to make spot start, Mets lose to Pirates, 7-4

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 11:22:02 GMT

The Mets called up Jose Butto from Triple-A Syracuse on Tuesday knowing that they might need a pitcher to provide length out of the bullpen. This has often been the case for the Mets this season and it’s one of the factors that led them to sell at the trade deadline two weeks ago.Their premonition proved correct. Left-hander David Peterson lasted only 3 2/3 innings and Butto, a spot starter, took over from there, taking the loss (0-2) after a seventh-inning blowup in the Mets’ 7-4 loss to the Pittsburgh Pirates on Tuesday night at Citi Field.The series is now tied at 1-1.Peterson held the Pirates (54-66) to only one run but struggled with his command right away. He walked six hitters and hit one, exiting in the fourth with one on and two outs. Butto was mostly effective until the seventh, when suddenly no one could find the strike zone.With the game tied 1-1, the right-hander loaded the bases with one out. He walked leadoff hitter Andrew McCutchen, gave up a double to Co...
