The timing is on purpose. Biden has the legal authority to block strikes by dock workers since it is a critical infrastructure. He has said he won’t use that power in this instance, and my guess is that’s because he wants to ensure the votes of union workers by letting the longshoremen hold the country hostage to the tune of billions a day.
