Standing firm with union workers, President Joe Biden canceled his address to the National Education Association, the union representing three million education workers across the country and the largest labor union in the United States, because the NEA’s staff is on strike and Biden won’t cross their picket line at the Philadelphia convention site, Politico reports.
Citing unfair labor practices against the NEA, the National Education Association Staff Organization is out on strike for the second time this year. The strike is the second for NEASO this year, and will limit the programming and functions at the union’s 103rd Representative Assembly.
