Recent discussions and actions highlight the growing support for unionization across various sectors in the United States. President Joe Biden has expressed his support for the union movement, particularly praising the United Auto Workers (UAW) and their recent contract deal with Daimler. This agreement, according to Biden, exemplifies the strength of collective bargaining and its role in fostering a clean energy economy with robust, middle-class union jobs. Additionally, representatives like Pramila Jayapal have voiced strong support for organized labor, noting its benefits for worker pay, benefits, and the overall economy. Jayapal specifically mentioned the efforts of Volkswagen workers to unionize and secure their workplace rights.

The President talked about the former guys comment about a potential “bloodbath” for the auto industry if China comes in. My friends in the @UAW would agree with this. I know not everyone is pro-union but … I’m a car guy and love Michigan. #longlivedetroit https://t.co/iRYEcgu9FJ

When workers unionize, it helps all of us. Organized labor is good for pay and benefits, good for the economy, and good for America. I’m thrilled to see more workers, like those at Volkswagen, taking action to collectively bargain and organize for their workplace rights! https://t.co/uUgw0w2w10
Every worker deserves a union.
