Biden in Labor Day speech in Ohio calls for repeal of anti-union bill
(I'm glad he did this but wonder why the administration was so quiet about what happened here in Wisconsin?)

Vice President Joe Biden delivered a fiery speech to a big labor event in Cincinnati Ohio on Monday where he urged his audience to stop a Republican anti-union “onslaught.”

Ohio will be voting Nov. 8 on a ballot referendum that would repeal a newly passed law pushed by Gov. John Kasich (R-Ohio) limiting collective bargaining rights of public workers.


“Repeal this law your governor passed!” Biden yelled at an AFL-CIO Labor Day picnic.

Biden argued that anti-union politicians don't share the same value set as ordinary Americans.
