- Boom. @marcorubio continues to walk the walk on pro-labor politics, unlike nearly all other GOP aspirants who claim to speak for the “multiracial working class.”
Oren Cass, Executive Director, American Compass (Twitter)
- Still not clear to me why President Biden thinks an industry as profitable as the railroads needs federal protection from its workers. But glad to see @marcorubio making the case for a pro-worker settlement.
Allan Smith, Political Reporter, NBC News (Twitter)

- Last year Rubio was the only Senate Republican to support union drive at Amazon warehouses in Alabama.
Joseph Zeballos-Roig, Domestic Policy Reporter, Semafor (Twitter)
- Rubio is outflanking Biden and hitting him from the left on a labor issue, setting up a very unusual dynamic as the WH urges Congress to avert a rail strike.
