Graham Calls On Biden To End Labor Strike

WASHINGTON - U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) today called on President Joe Biden to end labor strikes at ports across the country.

  • GRAHAM: "I can't emphasize [this enough:] The strike needs to end sooner rather than later. I cannot tell you how seriously this will jeopardize our recovery [from Hurricane Helene] in South Carolina and North Carolina. This is going to jeopardize public health. It's going to jeopardize public safety…"https://youtu.be/cxWloIOBr6c?si=0zxrQaybOsNWlAMf&t=11
  • GRAHAM: "[The Port of Charleston] is an essential outlet to the world for South Carolina… So President Biden… I am urging you, I am telling you, I am begging you [to] end this strike sooner rather than later because you're adding misery to pain." https://youtu.be/cxWloIOBr6c?si=Ew6wmaKgu8nUqom9&t=64
