White House Dodges on if Port Union Head's Salary Came Up in Talks

On Friday's "CNN Newsroom," White House National Economic Adviser Lael Brainard responded to a question on if International Longshoremen's Association President Harold Daggett's large salary came up during negotiations over the port strike where higher wages were demanded by stating that "the president thought it was very important to get the two parties back together, to get the collective bargaining process back on track, to get the ports re-opened. He pushed really hard for that and he got it done."
