Vice President Joe Biden is known for his colorful rhetoric, and he didn’t disappoint a Labor Day crowd in Cincinnati. Noting Ohio labor members’ fight to overturn a new state law that clamps down on the organizing rights of public employees, Biden said of the stakes: “This is a different kind of fight. This is a fight for the heart and soul of the labor movement. This is a fight for the existence of organized labor. You are the only ones who can stop the barbarians at the gate! That’s why they want you so bad.”
