PRESIDENTBIDEN VISITSLOCAL103

We were proud to host President Joe Biden on December 2 at our phone banking event that powered Senator Warnock to victory in the Georgia Senate race. We were also joined by Senators Elizabeth Warren and Ed Markey, as well as our brothers and sisters from the building trades.

Joe Biden came into office vowing to be a pro-worker president, and over the past two years, he’s more than kept that promise. Since entering office, President Biden has delivered for working America. Strong job growth, record low unemployment (3.7%), and landmark legislation like the American Rescue Plan Act, which kept millions of families afloat during the pandemic, the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, and a $1 trillion bipartisan infrastructure law expected to create hundreds of thousands of union jobs, have been cornerstones of his presidency. And most recently, the administration has set a goal of bringing 1 million more working women into the trades over the next decade — a goal that we fully support and that aligns with our vision at IBEW of creating an even more inclusive and diverse construction industry.
