Haley Stevens said "Organized labor is a beautiful thing, and it is incredibly evident today in the final hours of the UAW contract negotiations. I want all of my UAW friends, neighbors, and hardworking men and women of Michigan to know that I have their back from the Halls of Congress to the well of this very floor. While working in the Obama administration during the auto rescue, while working on that auto rescue, we saw the union take concessions. Madam Speaker, 14 years later, the companies have rebounded. They have record profits, and now is the time to deal workers back in. That is what is being negotiated. That is what our friends in organized labor are pushing for--dignity and justice. I stand with them today, tomorrow, and the tomorrow after that. We will see you in Michigan, friends. ___________________
