Business Groups Press Congress to Avert Potential Rail Strike

Big business groups and railroad companies are pressing Congress to intervene in a long-running labor dispute to avertsent a letter

on Monday, signed by dozens of other business lobbying groups, to Democratic and Republican congressional leaders calling on them to intervene to prevent a labor strike or a lockout by the freight railroads. The Chamber and these groups have made similar calls before, and some of the groups plan a press conference for Tuesday.

Not needed. He has negotiated an agreement with these parties already. And as he says 'created good union jobs. So why can't he do that now?

He can stop it himself, but the guy who hasn’t worked a day in his life, wants to be known as a big union guy…

Passing the buck

I'm for the union.

misinterpretation Joe et all said he’d already saved the day and that couldn’t have been a con

'Union Yes'

So the earlier deal was just something to put off till after the midterms? Sounds like a left deception!

Biden has the authority to invoke Taft-Hartley…he issues orders that he has no Constitutional right to issue but he can’t do this?

Just another example of how sippy cup fails at everything

🤔 I seem to remember him saying he fixed this before the midterms...

Remember when Biden took credit for resolving any possible strike? This is what happens when you spike the ball on the 3 yard line...

This from the guy that uses executive orders at a record pace, even when his party holds the House AND the Senate. Now all of a sudden he passes the buck to Congress.

Can’t President Biden place his hand on the train, whisper in its ear, and calm it down?

I thought he fixed this...................

Business groups urge Congress to block potential rail strikeOMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Business groups are increasing the pressure on lawmakers to intervene and block a railroad strike before next month’s deadline in the stalled contract talks. A coalition of more than 400 business groups sent a letter to Congressional leaders Monday urging them to step into the stalled talks because of fears about the devastating potential impact of a strike that could force many businesses to shut down if they can't get the rail deliveries they need. Easy, give the workers whay they want. Done. 'The unions have asked the railroads to consider adding paid sick time to what they already offered to address some of workers’ quality of life concerns.' How exactly can you block a strike? Democratic Party does this and they’re done.
