There are people out here extremely passionate on both sides. It\u2019s no secret which caucus I\u2019m from, who I supported. It\u2019s not a secret. I was very vocal about it. It\u2019s no secret where Shawn comes from, he\u2019s very vocal about it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut the reality is, the UAW is way more important than Chuck Browning or Shawn Fain or anybody sitting out here. It\u2019s way bigger than us.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo our enemies, who are not in this room, to the rich and powerful that want to attack labor. To the employers that want to make profits at our expense and through the exploitation of workers, to those people, I send the message today, and I know this hall does, that this International Executive Board supports all of you and we\u2019re going to work together to achieve our goals. And that you support this International Executive Board and support our President, Shawn Fain.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLet the world hear we\u2019re united when it comes to taking on our enemies and bargaining. So when they write the article, they see we stand as one.
