LaLota, Lawler back bill to restore federal workers’ bargaining rights
“The future of the labor movement belongs to the party that shows up, listens, and fights for working people,” LaLota said in a statement to POLITICO. “I’m proud to stand with America’s workers, and I will continue earning the trust that Long Islanders placed in me by delivering for them every single day.”
The moves to advance the Protect America’s Workforce Act came after a pause reflecting the ongoing political feud between Lawler and Jeffries, who sparred last month over Affordable Care Act subsidies in the early days of the government shutdown.
