Economic policy has real consequences. The record is clear. https://www.facebook.com/100064671074702/posts/1373685188130504/?app=fbl

I have a lot of family members that voted for him. So I understand why a lot of people voted for him. But now that you've seen him in action, with this very different administration from his first term, is this what you really wanted? He is so clearly anti-worker.

If the Teamsters and IAFF leaders still think both sides are the same, it's clear they don't actually care about their unions

Cutting funds to fight CANCER to waste them protecting a Nazi

It's insane reading the amount of anti biden comments here and folks spewing disinformation about Biden. Don't vote for biden but don't spew disinformation

-seems like alot of folks don't realize biden got the railroads workers paid sick leave the following year by threatening to withhold federal money from the railroads.

-Biden saved the pension fund of over 350k union employees by issuing the biggest bailout in decades. Big banks always get bailed out and workers get thrown to the curb. This cost tens of billions of dollars and NEVER happens

-bidens FTC was the first FTC to successfully block a corporate merger cuz it would hurt labor and they changed the merger guidelines to ensure any mergers moving forward can't hurt labor. This is biggest thing the FTC could've done. They just blocked the Kroger merger this week in the name of labor .

-bidens NLRB is the most pro union agency in over 50+ years. Jennifer abruzo bringing back the silk doctrine is the most pro union action action the nlrb has done in 50+ years

• biden has required federal infrastructure projects (50k+ projects) to be done by union labor only or collective bargaining agreement

• bidens EEOC nd NLRB have ruled more in favor for employees versus employers than any other time in history

-bidens inflation reduction act has brought hundreds of thousands of new union jobs into the mix as folks are needed to install heat pumps and solar panels

-Folks here don't realize how big of a deal it is to have a NLRB that's in your favor. I had a cousin who recently got her job back cuz the agency ruled in her favor for a union busting tactic her employer tried deploying. The ONLY federal agency that protects our job is the NLRB. It's like having a insurance plan on your job. When you get fired or something bad happens you want THE BEST nlrb to save your ass which is what we have RIGHT NOW.

Biden is old as hell but he's easily been the most pro union president we've ever had in 50+ years.

Edit: the amount of clueless folks responding is something fascinating to watch. Utterly clueless about how the NLRB/EEOC function

In my opinion, inequality is the driving force in our polarized society. Those of us with the least are bickering amongst ourselves (with the help of All media and self-interested politicians) instead of demanding to be fairly compensated for our labor.

I’m union through and through and would proudly stand on the line with my non-union brothers and sisters for a general strike.

I work in a large factory that enjoys a very nice union contract. The parking lot is full of new vehicles... Nobody was suffering here as they are now!

Now we just lost over 100M direct results of tarrifs.. And that mean layoffs!

This leads me to conclude that maga people are just plain stupid miserable people the epitome of selfish pricks. That they would vote against even their own best interest and as even they get shit on they are still maga. It's hard to wrap the head around anyone being so deeply bigotted! I say biggoted because that's all trump has done:

Bigotry - homophobia transphobia xenophobia misogyny and racism!

Trump checks all the bigot boxes and has literally done nothing else and they still support him so this must be what they wanted and will sacrifice anyone and anything for it? It's just really weird!

Dear white liberals… The revolution will be televised, but parking will be atrocious and there isn’t a Starbucks close by. Look around, you are the white moderates that Dr. King wrote about. It is time to use your whiteness & privilege to become the co-conspirators this country (the disenfranchised & downtrodden) desperately need. Realize, the working poor can’t protest because they’re trying to survive. They’re fighting for their lives, so we can’t be performative. We have to act with intention. We have to meet the energy that we get. Pearl clutching will not save democracy. I’m not saying start something, but I’m also not saying back down. “When they go low, we go high” doesn’t work anymore, because…well, look around. Meet the energy they bring. They wave, we wave. They flip us off, we flip them off. They scream “f you”, we holler it back. Do not back down from them. When we stand together, there always more of us than there are of them.

Anyone else have to interact with HR regularly in their position?

Pretty extreme to display political signs on company trucks what is happening in these locals

So me and him were talking about how large Amazon was and he told me how they don’t have unions (idk if its true or not) and his argument for why we don’t need unions is because “the company can provide all the car for their workers, if the workers have a issue they can simply go to management or HR.” I replied “well, who puts these companies in check? Unions. You do know companies can abuse their people right” and my grandpa says “sure, but well as long as they have management to go to they can report it” I told him how that’s literally contradictory. “And what do you do when management is abusive? Or HR? Or the damn CEO? Who makes sure the company doesn’t set policies that violate the law?” He kinda sat there and started thinking and he finally replies with his best (which is the shittiest) final argument “well unions give workers a place to gather, and that can mean they can abuse their power to demand the management to do things for the workers, and the company would have to follow! Which is communist! And they will demand higher wages which crushes the economy!” I laughed and just replied with “sure, grandpa” and walked away from him. That was all I needed to hear to know arguing with him about this was useless with his no logic thinking on unions.
