It's better than how he handled the rail strikes. I'm glad he's supporting the people on this one.
He did shut down the railroad workers strike...and then got them the paid sick days they were striking to get
From the article:
When Joe Biden and Congress enacted legislation in December that blocked a threatened freight rail strike, many workers angrily faulted Biden for not ensuring that the legislation also guaranteed paid sick days. But since then, union officials says, members of the Biden administration, including the transportation secretary, Pete Buttigieg, and labor secretary, Marty Walsh, who stepped down on 11 March, lobbied the railroads, telling them it was wrong not to grant paid sick days.
Probably treating this one differently because a railroad shutdown would have had much larger impact on people working in other industries.
Dude.
He literally IS one of us. He grew in upper working class. You can still see his house in Scranton.
Was he a paper salesman?
I think he managed a paper company or something like that, yeah
😬
