President Joe Biden has repeatedly proclaimed his intention to be the most pro-union president in history, and many labor leaders say he’s already made good on that goal.
Just a week after announcing his reelection campaign, Biden was endorsed by the National Education Association, which represents 2.9 million teachers and is the nation’s largest professional employees union. In June, he received the backing of the AFL-CIO, the earliest the labor federation has ever endorsed a candidate for president.
Unionized workers in a variety of sectors, from Starbucks baristas and Amazon warehouse workers to UPS drivers and Hollywood screenwriters and actors, have received encouragement from Biden.
