Joe Biden literally criminalized the rail workers using their legal right to strike.

And then used his platform and office to force the rail companies to address their concerns. You fucks are so dishonest

A bad deal that didn’t get close to meeting the unions demands is not “addressing their concerns”

Do you have over four sick days a year? If so, shut the fuck up. You know four days is nothing, why are you defending him?

No he fuckin did not, the rank and file wanted 14 days, the rank and file pushed for a strike, which union leadership did not want, the rank and file did not vote to sabotage their striking rights, Biden and the Capitalists wanted 0 days and no strike, the Squad “wanted” 7 days and were willing to sacrifice the right to strike despite knowing perfectly well the 7 days bill would die in the Senate

4 days is an insulting crumb to incentivize workers from not engaging in unauthorized slowdown measures, sick and tired of you Blue MAGA slugs

Do you have a source for this? I have never heard the other side of this story so I am interested.
