The president of the United Auto Workers (UAW), Shawn Fain, publicly invited President Biden to join the picket lines in the union's growing strike against leading automakers. The strike, which began last week at three plants in the Midwest, has expanded to 38 more locations in 20 states. While Biden has defended the striking autoworkers, he has not announced plans to visit them.

Former President Trump, who won over union workers in 2016, is skipping the upcoming Republican primary debate to deliver a speech in Michigan.
