Perspective: Some agencies resist Biden’s pro-labor orders, federal union says
During Monday’s session of AFGE’s annual legislative conference, President Everett Kelley gushed about Biden’s strong relationship with the largest federal labor organization.“While President Biden hasn’t given us everything we want, he’s already proven himself the most pro-union president of my lifetime,” Kelley told union members. “I’ve met with the president twice so far. That didn’t happen before with other U.S. presidents.
Closing the facilities, Kelley complained, “is a betrayal of our veterans and our brothers and sisters who work in the VA. And it’s a betrayal of all of us, because VA closures replace the care our members provide with private care that costs more and leaves veterans with worse health outcomes.
“You still have those holdovers from the previous administration,” Kelley told reporters, “that just don't want to give up any form of authority.”
