Biden Adviser: We'd Like to Have Paid Leave in Rail Deal, But We Don't Have Time, Biden 'Bears Ultimate Responsibility' Along with Congress

On Wednesday's broadcast of MSNBC's "Jose Diaz-Balart Reports," Biden Senior Adviser Gene Sperling answered a question on how we reached the current point where Congress has to intervene to prevent a rail strike by saying that "the President bears ultimate responsibility and Congress bears ultimate responsibility in this case." And Biden "believes in paid leave for everyone and would love to work with Republicans to get a bipartisan deal" but we're at a point where we have to avert a strike.
