NYC Mayor de Blasio writes for NBCNewsTHINK: Why I'm ending my 2020 presidential campaign — and what I promise to do next.
I saw that photo when I visited with ILA workers on Monday morning. Decades have passed, but plenty hasn’t changed: Working people in Charleston still want a job that offers a fair day’s pay for a fair day’s work. And they want to know that job will still be there tomorrow, not shipped overseas or automated out of existence.
You might think their hope is fading. Nationwide, corporations have taken more and more in profits over the intervening years. They’re not investing in workers, they’re investing in the machines that are eliminating jobs. But the workers I met in Charleston weren’t resigned to their fates. Like their forefathers in that picture on the wall, they stood up for themselves.
The workers I met in Charleston weren’t resigned to their fates. Like their forefathers in that picture on the wall, they stood up for themselves. They fought back and won.my presidential campaign. After several months of campaigning, I have reached the point where I feel I have contributed all I can to this Democratic primary. Today, I’m ending my campaign for the presidency.
This campaign has been a profound experience for me. I saw America in full — not as it appears on Twitter and cable news, where we’re constantly shown a country hamstrung by our differences and unable to tackle the problems we face. We have more in common than we realize — and more and more of us across the country are overcoming our divisions and standing up for working people.
