United Auto Workers endorse Biden; union president calls Trump a 'scab'

https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/biden-notches-key-2024-endorsement-united-auto-workers/story?id=106642558

"Shawn Fain announced UAW's support for Biden's reelection bid at their biannual conference in Washington, D.C.

"The backing of the Michigan-based UAW, with more than 400,000 members, could give Biden an edge in a key battleground state that has helped determine the last two political elections. He won Michigan by about 150,000 votes in 2020; Trump won it by about 10,000 votes four years earlier....

"Donald Trump is a scab," Fain said. "Donald Trump is a billionaire, and that's who he represents. If Donald Trump ever worked in auto plant, he wouldn't be a UAW member -- he'd be a company man trying to squeeze the American worker."
