Auto Workers Strike 'Natural Result' of Biden Administration's Policies

WASHINGTON (Sputnik) - The Biden administration's pro-union policies are to blame for the nationwide United Auto Workers (UAW) strike that now threatens the US economy, US Chamber of Commerce President and CEO Suzanne Clark stated on Friday.

"The UAW strike and indeed the ‘summer of strikes’ is the natural result of the Biden administration’s ‘whole of government’ approach to promoting unionization at all costs," Clark stressed.
The UAW for the first time in its history initiated simultaneous strikes early on Friday against all three of America's unionized automakers, known as the "Big Three."
"The decision by the United Auto Workers (UAW) to initiate a strike will have far reaching negative consequences for our economy, for the American workers directly employed by the Detroit Three, their suppliers and dealers, as well as the thousands of small businesses and families whose livelihoods will also be put at risk," Clark said.
