Biden's Last Labor Stand: Honoring the First Female Secretary of Labor While Propping Up His Failed One

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

57% : During her 12 years as Roosevelt's labor secretary, she was credited with helping establish the Social Security Act, the Fair Labor Standards Act, and the National Labor Relations Act that established workers' rights to organize, and collective bargaining.
47% : Quotes from his father, how he and Barack Obama instituted the Affordable Care Act, and how his father was accepted to John Hopkins but didn't go (true story, yeah.)
45% : In the last four years, that has meant fighting to increase overtime pay, pushing for a national heat standard, protecting retirees' pensions and putting more than $1 billion in wages and damages into workers' pockets, to name a few.That anti-employer overtime pay rule has been blocked by a federal judge, and sources predict it won't be overturned on appeal, if they even bother to do so in these waning days.
37% : No, the fact is that inflation is still on the rise, people, including those union members, still cannot afford basic necessities, and they voted for Trump because they wanted change -- not more policies that favor the furtherance of labor.
13% : So, despite marching with them, the rank-and-file of the UAW and other unions showed their disdain for Biden's policies by endorsing Trump in the 2024 election, and their leaders refused to endorse anyone.
