The United Farm Workers labor union is endorsing President Joe Biden for reelection in 2024. The union on Tuesday said the Democratic president has proven throughout his life that he's an “authentic champion” for workers and their families, regardless of race or national origin.

The United Farm Workers on Tuesday announced its endorsement of President Joe Biden for reelection, saying that the Democrat has proven throughout his life to be an “authentic champion” for workers and their families, regardless of race or national origin.

The farm workers’ union was co-founded by Cesar Chavez, the late grandfather of Julie Chavez Rodriguez, who Biden named as his 2024 campaign manager. Her father, Arturo Rodriquez, is a past UFW president.

Julie Rodriguez and “special guests” were expected to formally announce the endorsement later Tuesday at Muranaka Farms in the city of Moorpark in southern California.

    Authentically authentic candidate per the Dem guidelines. Didn’t stand up for rail workers then got heat for it, now he is a workers champion while also being business friendly. Incredible.

    We need to vote for people that will actual codify real change and stop straddling the line. We need representation that is not some rich family’s kids.
