You know the only reason millionaire aristocrat Roosevelt did anything good was bcs mass civil disobedience by socialists and unions forced him too, right? You put the cart before the horse.

That wasn't the only reason, but you're right that the socialists and unions influenced him greatly.

As railroads post record-high profits, the essential workers who keep the trains running are on the job around the clock without paid sick leave. It’s inexcusable that Americans working for multi-billion-dollar corporations can be fired if they don’t show up when they get sick.

Healthy workers are more productive workers. Staying home when you are sick prevents the spread of germs and bacteria to other workers. Paid sick leave is not a radical idea. It is a good idea.

Yes ... FDR would be spitting out his coffee ... The Railroads knew that Biden was going to cave ... The Union's only leverage was that ... IT WAS CHRISTMAS ... and Biden has taken that away from them ... and Joe ... all they were asking for ... was just 4 sick days per year?????
