A union man
« on: March 18, 2021, 02:01:28 PM »
The head of the AFL CIO Mr. TRUMKA endorsed Joe Biden for president
The head of the operating engineers Mr. James Callahan endorsed Joe Biden for president
The head of plumbers and pipefitters union Joel Pollack indorsed Joe Biden for president
The head of the Teamsters union Mr.  Jim Hoffa" not a joke "endorsed Joe Biden for president
The head of the carpenters international Mr. Doug McCarron endorsed Joe Biden for president. He has been president of the union since before 1990 and as a member I never was given an opportunity to vote for him
di head of the UAW Mr. Gary Jones endorsed Joe Biden for president and now Ford moving a plant to Mexico
All of these leaders were surprised when president Joe Biden cancelled the Keystone pipeline and putting thousands of members out of work. This is after his doing what he said he was going to do.
So my question is who do they represent since it's really not the working man and I believe we need new leadership across the board!

35 oil spills on the first year alone. that includes a 383,000 spill that damaged a lot of the ecosystem.

question now is, will the land be returned to those people that it was taken from because they refused to sell.

btw less than a thousand people were working on it and most were temporary jobs. permanent jobs were estimated at between 40 and 100.

Keystone pipeline was finished 6 or 7 years ago.

Hmm I didn't think it was in operation yet, so how did the oil spills happen?

he said keystone pipeline.  that has been completed. keystone xl is has not due to the problems with keystone tendency to spill.
