What the Labor Movement Wants From a Joe Biden Administration by Kim Kelly, Teen Vogue, Dec. 22 https://www.teenvogue.com/story/unions-joe-biden-labor-movement . . . "...If Biden really wants to be “the most pro-union president,” he must make labor law reform and card check a priority — and actually follow through this time.Here are a few suggestions for how the Biden Administration can put its money where its messaging was, and to make a real difference in the lives of working people in this country.
"First off, as soon as Biden is handed the keys to the kingdom, he needs to use every available tool to deliver a real stimulus package and badly needed economic relief to working-class and poor people in this country. The current proposal slithering its way through Congress doesn’t even hit a bare minimum. In order to aid a suffering populace and inch towards any kind of economic recovery, Biden needs to use his power to freeze rent and mortgages, continue to freeze student loan payments, freeze evictions, and, most importantly, get a significant amount of money directly into peoples’ pockets. How he does all that is up to him, but the people cannot wait any longer. . . .
