Topic: The State and Local Government Sweat Free Consortium. In March 2007, at a meeting in Harrisburg, PA, state and local governments came closers to consolidating their purchasing power to prevent tax dollars from support sweatshop labor in the garment industry. Today we bring you some of the speakers from that meeting: Representatives from the state of PA, the city of San Francisco, a union garment worker, and Maine’s own Bjorn Skorpen Claeson, the Director of Sweatfree Communities
