President Biden is shortly due to deliver political remarks at the North America’s Building Trade Union National (NABTU) Legislative Conference in Washington DC, where he is expected to pick up a key endorsement from the union. LIVESTREAM
- CNN reports: "In making one of their earliest ever presidential endorsements, NABTU leaders are kickstarting an eight-figure organizing program to try to deliver their 250,000 members in the battlegrounds of Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin for Biden."
- NABTU has around 3 million members nationwide, but union boss Sean McGarvey conceded in an interview than many rank-and-file union members are less convinced about Biden than the union management.
- McGarvey said: “They think now Joe Biden and Trump are running again, they think it’s just two politicians, ‘Same old, same old. Lo and behold, it’s not the same old, same old.”
