    Low wage earners? Never in American history have they been ignored for longer

    He’s been president for three years.

    Hes outlawed collective bargaining

    To what is this even referring?
    From here

    the policy of the United States is to encourage worker organizing and collective bargaining and to promote equality of bargaining power between employers and employees

    If you’re referring to the Railroad workers, see this comment by BrandoGil

    put it into law that oil and gas must get more land than any renewable energy

    Please post a source indicating any sort of mandate that oil and gas “must get more land”.
    From here

    The Biden administration will resume federal oil and gas leasing in June with a large reduction in acres available for drilling and a historic royalty rate increase.

    and

    eliminated 80% of the federal acreage originally nominated for competitive leasing (473 of the 646 previously identified parcels) following environmental review.

      He’s been president for three years.

      right, but it’s been going on for much longer than that, it’s just more egregious the longer that is, so now its most egregious under him. Also, no plan to address this in his future as far as he’s said, and he wont even work on stuff he has said he would

      this is him outlawing collective bargaining. here

      And the portion of the Infrastructure Bill requiring Oil and Gas get first dibs on any federal land being leased, go here and ctrl+f for sec. 50265 " ENSURING ENERGY SECURITY" where they outline how at a minimum, tens of millions of acres of federal land has to be auctioned to oil and gas first.
