Does Biden have the power to make private companies give paid sick days? Does the President have that kind of power and do we want Presidents to have that kind of power? Seems like a slippery slope. I can't get anyone to give me an answer.
The problem for Rail Workers is because of the RLA (Railway Labor Act) they are basically blocked from striking. It puts them in an impossible situation.
