The United Farm Workers on Tuesday announced its endorsement of President Joe Biden for reelection, saying that the Democrat has proven throughout his life to be an “authentic champion” for workers and their families, regardless of race or national origin.

The farm workers’ union was co-founded by Cesar Chavez, the late grandfather of Julie Chavez Rodriguez, who Biden named as his 2024 campaign manager. Her father, Arturo Rodriquez, is a past UFW president.

Julie Rodriguez and “special guests” were expected to formally announce the endorsement later Tuesday at Muranaka Farms in the city of Moorpark in southern California.

    If amazing job means calling senators who voted against your policy platform “my dear friends”, then okay I guess…… he did an amazing job at capitulating without putting up an ounce of fight. He didn’t call out anyone.

    He didn’t actually want the policies he claimed to stand for. He lied to us. He is a corporate neoliberal. He wouldn’t be a democrat if the republicans weren’t actually racist fascist sons of bitches. But they all take legal bribes….

      You think all a prez has to do is “call out someone” and then magically get Republicans to vote as Dems? LOL. Yes Bernie would have tried harder. But Bernie would have gotten the same results. Bernie told you that again and again and again when he said we need a “political revolution” to change the entire congress, not just the president.

      He didn’t actually want the policies he claimed to stand for. He lied to us.

      No, you lied to us with this false statement. The policies he has already gotten passed have been amazing compared with all previous presidents. That you weren’t paying attention is on you, not Biden.
