    Ok. This is my last reply. Say whatever you want afterward, I’m not responding.

    Biden created a bill and presents it to union leadership based on what lawmakers are willing to pass into law. The leadership presents the bill to the workers. The workers vote. The leadership tells Biden they agree. Biden signs the bill. That’s it. That’s the fucking flow of events. Biden didn’t go against the will of a vote he didn’t call for. He presented a fucking solution, and the solution was agreed to. It doesn’t matter to Biden what the workers voted for. He didn’t ask for a vote. He asked the leadership what their decision was. By your own logic, the leadership betrayed the workers by not giving proper representation of their will.

      So you’re just lying? The workers voted against it and then he presented a bill to Congress, and they signed it. The union had zero power.

      If your explanation of events was true, Biden wouldn’t have needed an act of Congress in the first place! Why do you think he had to do that?
