I congratulate the Association of Professional Flight Attendants, their 25,000 members, and American Airlines for reaching a tentative agreement. And I thank Acting Secretary Su, Secretary Buttigieg, and other members of my Administration for their efforts to help both sides secure this agreement, which averts a strike that would have been devastating for the industry and consumers. This is the culmination of over 5 years of negotiations and proves once again that collective bargaining benefits workers, companies, and our economy. As the most pro-union and pro-worker president in American history, I’m proud of the record wages and record contracts secured by workers during my Administration. When unions are strong, our nation is strong.### Next Post: A Proclamation on Made in America Week, 2024 A Proclamation on Made in America Week, 2024 July 19, 2024 •Presidential Actions Next Post Stay ConnectedSign UpEmail Address* RequiredZIP CodePlease leave blank.We'll be in touch with the latest information on how President Biden and his administration are working for the American people, as well as ways you can get involved and help our country build back better.
