“Insulting”- Labor Unions That Endorsed Biden Now Lashing Out At Him

Joe Biden has already made labor unions regret their support for him.

During his first day in office, Biden revoked the construction permit for the Keystone XL oil pipeline, destroying thousands of jobs.

TC Energy Corp., the Canadian company sharing ownership of the pipeline with the Alberta government, had estimated that 10,000 jobs would be created in 2021 thanks to the construction of the pipeline.

A total of 42,000 jobs were to be filled once the pipeline was completed.

The Laborer’s International Union Of North America issued this statement:

“The Biden decision to cancel the Keystone XL pipeline permit on day one of his presidency is both insulting and disappointing to the thousands of hard-working LIUNA members who will lose good-paying, middle-class family-supporting jobs,”

“By pandering to environmental extremists, a thousand union jobs will immediately vanish and 10,000 additional jobs will be foregone.”

This comes after LIUNA bragged about pushing Biden “over the top” in 2020:

The North American Building Trades Union said:

“North America’s Building Trades Unions are deeply disappointed in the decision to cancel the Keystone XL permit on the President’s first day in office. Environmental ideologues have prevailed, and over a thousand union men and women have been terminated from employment on the project.

Tens of thousands of workers are left to wonder what the future holds for them. In the midst of a pandemic that has wreaked havoc on the economic security of tens of millions more, we must all acknowledge the uncertainty and anxiety this government action has caused.”

The United Association Of Union Plumbers and Pipefitters released this statement:

“In revoking this permit, the Biden Administration has chosen to listen to the voices of fringe activists instead of union members and the American consumer on Day 1.”

If you vote stupid, you get stupid results. Cause and effect.

Their leadership told them to vote against The Bad Orange Man.

Elections have consequences.

Next time, think before you vote.

Uh, Biden told you he’d do this then lied about it. You idiots bought the lie. Have fun delivering for Door Dash or learning to code.

Morons.

Just wait until they find out Biden allows 30 million+ illegals to become citizens and compete for those union jobs!
