PHILADELPHIA - President Joe Biden made his 2024 re-election pitch to union members in Philadelphia on Saturday in his first political rally sincein April, aiming to shore up a key part of his political coalition and bolster support among white working-class voters.
“I told you when I ran for president, I’d have your back, and I have,” Mr Biden told the approximately 2,000 union members in attendance. “But you’ve had my back as well.”The Democratic president’s frequent appearances at union events, including at a labour conference in Washington right after announcing his re-election campaign, shows how important he thinks the labour movement is to a second term.
that weakened worker protections, pushed to reverse a decades-long decline in union membership, and made it easier for union labour to build bridges and ports around the country.“In 10 years, Americans are going to look around and say, ‘Oh my God, look what we did. Look at the nation’s roads, bridges, airports,’“ Mr Biden said.
Republicans, Mr Biden said, “are coming for your jobs. They’re coming for your job. They’re coming for your future. They’re coming for the future you’re building for your kids and your grandkids.”
