Hinson Votes to Avert Rail Strike
Washington, D.C. - Congresswoman Hinson (IA-01) released the following statement after supporting legislation to avert a rail strike. “Workers deserve fair wages, benefits, and good working conditions. This is even more important as families are struggling to pay the bills during this time of record inflation -- all workers are feeling the pain brought on by the Biden economy. President Biden failed to negotiate an agreement, allowing a rail strike to loom that would lead to thousands of lay-offs around the holidays, cost our economy $2 billion per day, upend our supply chain, and worsen inflation. I supported legislation to avert this latest Biden catastrophe, and will continue working to solve the challenges we’re facing, ensure workers in all industries have fair wages and benefits, and get our economy working for everyone again.” - Congresswoman Ashley Hinson ### |
