The endorsement is about strategy for the Democratic Party and its allies, the union said, as well as a message to Biden that his unwavering support for Israel amid its genocide in Gaza must change. The union, which has over 50,000 members, said that voters joining them in this effort is the best way to strengthen the Democrats’ eventual nominee and keep President Donald Trump out of office this November.
“While Biden has been an ally to workers over the last four years, low-wage workers cannot afford setbacks when it comes to the right to organize and the protections we’ve won during Biden’s time in office. To protect workers, we must give ourselves the best chance to defeat anti-worker forces in the General Election,” the union said in a statement.
