Biden Signs Executive Order to Enhance Labor Standards in Federal Investments

The 'Good Jobs EO' aims to improve workplace conditions and promote unionization for federally funded projects.

The executive order directs agencies to prioritize high-wage jobs and worker benefits in federal grants.
It includes measures to support union recognition and collective bargaining.
The order is part of the Biden-Harris administration's broader Investing in America agenda.
Biden emphasized the role of unions in building the middle class during his Michigan visit.
The administration claims the order will help create high-quality jobs and ensure project delivery.
