The Biden-Harris Administration's Support of Workers
Now let's home in on the tally of what the Biden-Harris Administration has done for workers:
It has created 16 million jobs, including 600,000 manufacturing jobs
Wages have gone up. Unemployment has gone down
Biden formulated the American Rescue Plan Act, which kept millions of families afloat during the pandemic.
Biden formulated the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, a $1 trillion infrastructure law that will ultimately create hundreds of thousands of blue-collar jobs.
Biden used executive orders to improve conditions for work on federal projects, including the use of project labor agreements for federal construction projects, which requires the hiring of unionized workers. His administration also created new rules around pay equity for federal workers.
Biden is the first president ever to join a picket line. It happened during the most effective United Auto Workers strike in decades.
The Biden-Harris Administration banned the noncompete clauses that can stop workers from taking another job in their same line of work if they quit.
Biden-Harris expanded eligibility for overtime pay to people making up to US$58,656 a year, up from its current cap of $35,568.
It has pushed pension funds to only invest in companies that adhere to high labor standards.
Under the leadership of Biden’s appointees, the National Labor Relations Board – an independent agency charged with protecting workplace rights – has investigated allegations that Starbucks, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, and other companies have intimidated their employees to discourage unionization drives.
Biden supports the Protecting the Right to Organize Act, better known as the PRO Act. This bill would impose financial penalties on companies that illegally interfere with their employees’ union rights and would speed up the collective bargaining process after workers win a union election.
