Labor Express Radio Labor Express Radio is a weekly labor news and current affairs radio program that broadcasts every Monday morning on WLUW, a formerly-independent community radio station in Chicago which has recently reverted to its original status as the radio station for Loyola University in Chicago. It is Chicago’s only English-language radio program devoted to issues related to the labor movement ("Radio Chamba", also on WLUW covers the labor movement in its Spanish-language broadcast) and one of only a handful of such programs around the country. "Labor Express" has covered local, national and international labor news for almost a decade and a half, since its first broadcast in 1993. It is a totally volunteer-produced and self-funded project. The program is a production of the "Committee for Labor Access", a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, which oversees both "Labor Express" and "Labor Beat", a Public-access television labor cable TV program which broadcasts in Chicago and Rockford, Illinois and St. Louis, Missouri. The program is affiliated with IBEW Local 1220 which represents radio and TV broadcast engineers in Chicago, but the views expressed on the show are solely that of its producers.
