“President Biden on Friday sided with members of the United Auto Workers, who have walked out of three plants in the Midwest amid a contract dispute over pay, pensions and work hours at the three Detroit automakers,” the New York Times reports.
Said Biden: “Let’s be clear, no one wants a strike. Say it again.
No one wants a strike. But I respect the workers right to use their options on in the collective bargaining system, and I understand the workers’ frustration.”Meanwhile, Donald Trump told NBC News: “The auto workers are being sold down the river by their leadership.”
