Today in Labor History

Apr. 3, 1913
Some 20,000 textile mill strikers in Paterson, N.J., gather on the green in front of the house of Pietro Botto, the socialist mayor of nearby Haledon, to receive encouragement by novelist Upton Sinclair, journalist John Reed and speakers from the Wobblies. Today, the Botto House is home to the American Labor Museum.

Biden Joins Picket Line With Striking UAW Workers In Historic Visit
Updated On: Sep 26, 2023
Sept. 26, 2023 | POLITICS | President Joe Biden walked the picket line of the United Auto Workers outside of Detroit, telling them they deserve better pay, in a historic visit Tuesday 12 days into the union's strike against the nation's three largest automakers. Biden, visiting a General Motor distribution center, said workers deserve more of a share of the profits from Ford Motor Co., General Motors and Stellantis. It marked the first time a sitting president has joined a picket line of workers on strike in the middle of a labor dispute. “Folks, stick with it because you deserve the significant raise you need and other benefits," Biden, wearing a black UAW hat, said through a bullhorn. "Let's get back what we lost, OK? If we can save them, then it's about time for them to step up for us." USA Today  PHOTO: EVAN VUCCI /AP
