Joe Biden and Donald Trump will speak to striking auto workers in rare back-to-back events in Michigan this week, highlighting how important unions are to the 2024 presidential election, even though they represent a tiny fraction of U.S. workers.
Biden will join striking United Auto Workers members on a picket line in Wayne County, Michigan at 12 p.m. EST on Tuesday, which labor historians said is the most support shown for striking workers by a sitting president in at least 100 years.
"We are a long way from the general election, but it sure feels like the general election," said Dave Urban, a Republican strategist who previously worked for Trump. "There definitely needs to be more of a light shined on the auto industry," said Brandon Cappelletty, 25, who was on a picket line in Toledo, Ohio last week. "The politicians need to back us a lot more."The auto industry and its labor movement are deeply intertwined with Michigan's politics and that of other Midwestern U.S. states.
The Trump administration's stance on labor issues was "unconditionally anti-union," said Robert Bruno, professor of labor and employment relations at the University of Illinois. Republicans believe Biden's push to electrify America's vehicle fleet, by pumping billions of dollars of tax rebates into EV manufacturing, is unpopular with auto workers."Bidenflation and Biden's insane EV mandate have put the state of Michigan and the critical consitutecy of working middle class voters in Michigan in play," said Jason Miller, a senior Trump adviser.
