WASHINGTON—President Joe Biden said on Sept. 22 that he will travel to Michigan on Sept. 26 “to join the picket line” to show his support for members of the United Auto Workers (UAW) who have been on strike against the Big Three automakers.

“Tuesday, I’ll go to Michigan to join the picket line and stand in solidarity with the men and women of UAW as they fight for a fair share of the value they helped create,” President Biden wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter.
