On C\u00e9sar Ch\u00e1vez Day, DNC Chair Jaime Harrison, <\/em>DNC Hispanic Caucus Chair Iris Martinez, and DNC Labor Council Chair Stuart Appelbaum <\/em>released the following statement:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cToday and every day, we honor C\u00e9sar Ch\u00e1vez\u2019s inspirational legacy. His dedication and commitment improved the lives of farmworkers and working people across the country. He fought tirelessly for labor law reform and ensured that workers could have basic human rights and protections, were treated with dignity, and received recognition for their contributions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cUnder the leadership of President Biden, Democrats are carrying the torch on behalf of C\u00e9sar Ch\u00e1vez and his mission. President Biden is fighting for working people by growing the economy from the middle out and bottom up. As the most pro-union president in American history, he protected millions of union workers\u2019 pensions, strengthened workers\u2019 right to organize, and proudly stood on the picket line with the United Auto Workers, as the first sitting president to ever do so. While Donald Trump spent four years in office undermining unions and cutting taxes for large corporations, President Biden is prioritizing workers and putting people above corporate greed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cToday, we are reminded of the values C\u00e9sar Ch\u00e1vez embodied, the vision of freedom he fought for, and his commitment to justice and dignity \u2013 one that we must uphold every day. As long as Democrats are in office, C\u00e9sar Ch\u00e1vez\u2019s legacy lives on and workers nationwide can count on having pro-union, pro-worker leaders fighting hard on their behalf. This November, workers\u2019 rights are on the ballot, and it is imperative that when we vote, we do so for a future that would make C\u00e9sar Ch\u00e1vez proud.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
