After the railroad workers were forced to end their strike, the Biden administration and the union continued working on the problem and on April 20 the workers got the sick day agreement they demanded. It’s not like they were just dropped by the administration. While I do grant that breaking the strike was not great, it’s not as if that was the end of the story.
They’d of got a lot more if they were able to strike. A strike is the biggest tool unions have to leverage. They might of got a better deal without even having to strike. The lack of the possibility ruined their chances of getting anything better. I wish they’d done some kind of slowdown or walk out anyway.

Oh cool, he threw them some scraps after breaking the strike. What a fantastic win for labor power.
The railroads don’t agree, bot I don’t really know about it
That article is older than the recent agreement that got the sick days. So sentiments may not be the same.
