FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – September 15, 2023
WASHINGTON DC –I stand in solidarity with the United Auto Workers in their historic strike for a just contract with the Big Three automakers. The history of organized labor is a history of struggle, and today I honor that struggle.
These workers are doing exactly what needs to be done in order to take back our country from corporate economic tyranny. I support their demands for wage increases with cost-of-living adjustments, an end to the tiered employment system, better benefits, and a 32-hour work week.
We need a government that stands with organized labor and not with unfettered corporate power. Government should stand arm and arm with forces of economic justice, in stalwart rebuke of those who transgress against it.
As President of the United States, I will.”
