President Joe Biden will travel to Michigan on Tuesday and walk the picket line with members of the United Auto Workers union, he announced Friday, a trip that comes after the president faced political pressure to ramp up his public support for the union members.
He needs to address the fact that all the green energy stimulus going to EVs has gone to non-union plants and rectify the situation immediately. That has been a huge blow to UAW.
Rank and file stand on a picket line because withholding their labor is their political power. Biden has power to put forth policy to improve working people’s lives, standing on a picket line without action is just a photo op.
