The UAW — which has pointedly withheld an endorsement of Biden’s reelection — has specifically chided the administration for facilitating billions of dollars in tax incentives and loans for automakers without requiring them to share the benefits with union laborers.

Empty threats on the endorsement. The UAW has always been in the dems pocket. They will never tell you to vote R. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gretch has done a good job of keeping unions in the pocket. Overturning right to work and making sure it doesn’t happen again was a huge win for the unions . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Public sector unions are worse than the uaw, because they’re a conflict of interest by design. Most parents can choose where they buy a car, they cannot choose where they send their kids to school. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
