President Biden spoke Tuesday alongside a powerful labor leader who once credited Hunter Biden with giving him White House access during the Obama administration.
Biden delivered remarks at the North America's Building Trades Unions (NABTU) legislative conference Tuesday, hours after announcing he and Vice President Kamala Harris would seek re-election next year.
While the appearance was officially a White House event, the president gave a campaign-style speech that echoed the themes in his re-election launch video.
The president was introduced by NABTU President Sean McGarvey who praised Biden for "building an economy that works for working people."
"Hello, Building Trades! And thank you, President and my friend Sean McGarvey. You’ve been a friend of mine for a long time, as many of you have," Biden remarked after McGarvey gave him the floor. "I wouldn’t be standing here, I wouldn’t have been elected to the United States Senate in the state that was a ‘right to work’ state initially were it not for American union labor."
