Shawn Fain, the U.A.W. president, said that President Biden had earned the union’s endorsement when he joined striking members on the picket line last fall in an unprecedented show of support by a sitting president.

“This election’s about who will stand up with us and who will stand in our way. We need to know who’s going to sit in the most powerful seat in the world and help us win as a united working class. So if our endorsements must be earned, Joe Biden has earned it.” [cheers] “I’m on a picket line, Donald Trump went to a nonunion shop and attacked you. Let me tell you something I learned a long time ago. If I’m going to be in a fight, I want to be in a fight with you, U.A.W. Working people are going to get their fair share. You’ve earned it, you fought for it and you deserve it. So today, I want to say to all of you: Thank you. Thank you. I could not be more proud or more honored that you’ve chosen to stand with me.”
