Joe Biden just became the first sitting US president to walk a picket line. It has less to do with his pro-worker credentials than the militancy of a revitalized US labor movement that has broad public support. https://t.co/PO8wrNITN3

When President Biden visited striking UAW workers outside GM's Willow Run Redistribution Center in Wayne, Michigan he was talking to members of Local 174. This was the local organized by Walter Reuther and a cohort of Socialists, Communists, Social Gospel Christians 87 years ago.
