"The Senate voted on Thursday to reject a proposal to give railway workers seven days of sick leave, a benefit that was left out of a labor deal brokered by the presidential emergency board between freight rail companies and unionized workers."

@LiberalSocialist
Huh, will you look at that. You got bait and switched by libs yet again
Exactly. the democrats could have tied the bills together to both end the strike and give the workers sick leave, but because they are bourgeois, they didn't actually want to do that, so they kept their strike breaking compromise and their sick leave "demands" separate. Why separate your compromise and your demands unless you want to lose all your leverage? Oh, right. because they never cared to begin with.

Union leadership didn't ask her, they simply "agreed" with the plan, or so she claims, the rank and file want 14 days and their right to strike
AOC and every other member of the house knew the 7-day compromise would fail in the senate, the point was to provide 48 hours of political cover for the strike-breaking congress just pulled
Also everyone should be aware that AOC co-opts (and misrepresents) labor shit she isn't actually involved in. Talk to ALU folks in NYC.
Social-Democrats, not even once.
yes, that is my understanding, there were 2 bills.

well the unions rejected the compromise their management gave them. the point of strikes is to jeopardize the profits of capitalists to receive better concessions. if they aren't allowed to go through with that because congress stopped them and forced them to accept sub-par (or in this case, zero) concessions, then nobody was actually "helped"
:both-sides:
She's doing the strike breaking thing but wants plausible deniability.
This is how "progressives" do the bad things. They give up all of their leverage, support the bad thing in favor of wishes and promises, then don't actually get the results of the wishes and promises and go, "aw shucks".
You're supposed to think this is smart and good strategy, lol. You're also meant to think this is unintentional and they're just very dumb people making the same obvious mistake multiple times per year.
