President Joe Biden is making his pitch to union members as a possible labor strike threatens to upset both the economy and his 2024 reelection bid.

Biden's latest appeal to labor unions comes after the United Auto Workers lodged complaints against Ford, General Motors, and Stellantis over unfair wages and pensions, and voted in favor of a strike at the Detroit Three automakers if their demands are not met by the end of their four-year contract, which expires on Sept. 14.

Biden called out Republicans for trying to prevent an increase to the minimum wage and for attacking unions, stating he’ll “continue to make progress where I can.” However, Biden has struggled to secure endorsements from the UAW and Teamsters, both large organizations that have threatened to go on strike this year and that endorsed him in 2020.
