Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) joins Meet the Press exclusively to discuss President Biden’s re-election campaign and the divide within the Democratic Party over the war in Gaza.
You still hear people talk about the the rail worker strike and yet completely forget how it ended with Biden getting the rail workers pretty much everything they wanted
Biden subverted the workers’ rights to strike, it doesn’t matter what the outcome was. Unions have the right to strike anytime for any reason and no President should have the legal authority to interfere in negotiations for any reason, point blank.
The railworkers strike set precedent that strikes could only happen if the President wanted them to, which is a really fucking awful thing to do. But I’d expect no less from a neolib.
Okay so best case scenario is that Biden didn’t do anything to change union rights in America and followed the past 100 years and worst case is that he showed that not even the dems actually support workers right to strike? Am I following you right? The president isn’t the daddy of America. You fuckers talk all the time about how “Joe Biden doesnt control the economy” when he literally stepped into a private negotiation to force people back to work. It was illegal when Raegan did it and it was illegal when Biden did it.
It doesn’t matter the results. Biden subverted the workers’ rights to strike. He could’ve gotten them 10x more than they were petitioning for and it would’ve still been a disaster for unions in the long-term. Union rights aren’t subject to the whim of whoever is sitting in the Oval Office.
