Power of young people. And we do that largely through iconic partnerships with artists, actors, athletes, and other cultural figures. And its awesome to see a musical icon like Taylor Swift, who is really a Role Model for so many young people because she shares a lot of the same values. And is concerned about a lot of the issues that they care about. And shes being vocal and encouraging new voters to get to the polls. And really emphasizing that No One can sit out in this election.

from bolting and going to somewhere where they could be in the uaw. and the public reaction to this was interesting.bl the public was overwhelmingly in support of the autoworkers while they were on this strike. polls showed like 75% of the public supported the autoworkers in this strike.rt so this is a historic thing, a a big deal. but if you think back to september, right when we were at the start of it, before we knew it would work, before we knew it would be successful, before we knew how it would turn out, how much public opinion would be in support of these guys, when we were less than two weeks into that strike, do you remember what president biden did? you might remember. president biden went to michigan and joined the autoworkers. from the white house, he had been supporting them vocally. he had been trying to help facilitate negotiations but once they indeed went on strike, he physically went to michigan to w one of the plants that was being picketed and he stood wit
good to see you. and thanks to you at home for joining us. really happy to have you here. happy monday. so in september, you might remember there was a big strike. united autoworkers went on strike. they called it a stand-up strike, which means they didn t strike every single factory, every single facility all at once. they strategically picked individual plants to strike and picket. and it was so they could basically keep up the pressure on the companies but also be nimble about it while the negotiations were going on. a strike is about what leverage you can use against the companies. this was a strategy that was about fine tuning their leverage. so they did a stand-up strike. that said, it was not a small thing. it was a huge strike. it was the first time ever that the uaw went on strike against all three major u.s. car companies all at once. but they did it. and in the end, it paid off hugely. the strike ultimately lasted about a month and a half. it lasts 46 days. and i
