Biden Cancels NEA Speech as Union Staff Strike Halts Convention

President Biden, known for his union support, refused to cross picket lines set up by the National Education Association's staff in Philadelphia.

The NEA staff union initiated a strike over unfair labor practices, leading to the cancellation of the convention's final days.
Biden's campaign emphasized his commitment to union principles, stating he would not cross the picket line.
The NEA has filed two complaints alleging wage theft and lack of transparency in outsourcing contracts.
Biden still plans to visit Pennsylvania this weekend, with further details to be announced.
The NEA claims misinformation has been spread about the contract negotiations but remains committed to fair bargaining.
