According to Biden, his administration is in negotiations to prevent a railroad strike.

President said on Thursday that his administration was involved in negotiations to avoid a looming U.S.

railroad strike that could possibly shut down supply chains across the country but added that he has not directly engaged on the matter yet. Speaking to reporters outside a fire station on Nantucket Island, Massachusetts, during a Thanksgiving holiday visit, President Biden declined to provide details on how the talks were going because it was “the middle of negotiations.”

“My team has been in touch with all the parties, and in (a) room with the parties and I have not directly engaged yet because they’re still talking,” Biden said.
