US President Joe Biden Makes History by Joining Striking Car Workers on Picket Line, Demands 40% Pay Rise

US President Joe Biden has made history by becoming the first modern US president to join a picket line with striking car workers. He showed his support for the workers' demand for a 40% pay rise. Biden traveled to Wayne, Michigan, to speak with the striking autoworkers, marking the first time a sitting president has joined a union picket line. The move is seen as a reflection of the revitalized US labor movement and its broad public support. This action has forced politicians and others to choose sides between workers and CEOs.
