STAND IN SOLIDARITY WITH UAW
(Ms. STANSBURY asked and was given permission to address the House
for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
Ms. STANSBURY. Mr. Speaker, I rise today because labor is in the
House, the people's House, as we stand with workers all across America
who are on strike, especially our United Auto Workers, who are on the
front lines right now.
As a daughter of labor, this is a powerful moment in history. Across
the Nation, across sectors, American workers are tired of giving their
lives for their jobs every single day and getting less in return. They
are standing up, organizing, and demanding better pay, better
conditions, and better benefits.
This movement is about people, about writers, actors, postal workers,
and autoworkers who are paving the path for future generations and
receiving just compensation.
This is the moment. I am proud to stand in solidarity with our United
Auto Workers and every worker across America who is collectively
bargaining for the pay, benefits, and conditions that they deserve.
Mr. Speaker, I urge my friends to stay strong and keep up the fight.
