This upsets me on multiple levels, though I’m more surprised at the union officials than the WH.
Kicking ass for the working class. Not.
From another topic, this is well-said.
Maybe CNN should talk to an actual worker instead of gaslighting the public
Here’s what one railroad worker had to say:
“The union sold us out so this wouldn’t make the Democrats look bad before the midterms. There’s no other way to view considering Pierce’s statements before this deal,” another worker commented. “Three to four weeks to even write the damn thing up, then time to vote, then most likely an additional 30 days cooling off period after that puts it firmly after the midterm elections for a future strike.”
I guess the workers can rest easy knowing their sacrifice of health care, time, and fair wages until after the election will support the “most union-friendly president in history” and his party.
