Oregon Public Broadcasting employees staged an informational picket outside the station’s studios last night to call attention to issues around union negotiations.

The Service Employees International Union represents dozens of workers at the National Public Radio affiliate, and they are saying station management is trying to break the union.

Iyesha (aye-EE-sha) Owens spoke at the informational picket last night about what’s at stake for workers.

The union has planned another picket on August 23.
