POLL: Politicians who claim to stand with UAW workers—but have taken tens of thousands in campaign contributions from GM, Ford, & Stellantis, including up through 2023—as those corporations exploited and underpaid UAW workers.

Is taking that money crossing the picket line, or nah?

Depends if they took it during the strike.
But even if not technically crossing, it shows where their loyalties lie.

@2CB Why does it depend on that? Does taking money from exploitative corporations who forced the strike before the formal strike began make it ok to take?

@QasimRashid
I tend to split hairs for accuracy. I did NOT say it was ok to take. It is not crossing a picket line if there is no picket line at the time. Crossing a picket line is an actual overt act. If they lean toward supporting management against workers because of the $, then it is analogous to crossing a picket line, and I suspect that is the case. I want all the corporate money to go to paying taxes, not politicians.
