#shorts Biden took credit for banning burger joints like McDonald’s from forcing employees to sign non-compete agreements. “So a cashier at a burger place can’t cross the street to take the same job at another burger place to make a couple bucks more,” he said. Republicans balked. “They just changed it because we exposed it,” Biden retorted. “That was part of the deal guys, look it up.” The president is apparently referring to his July 2021 Executive Order, which encouraged the Federal Trade Commission “to ban or limit non-compete agreements.”

Most fast-food chains have never made any such requirement of their workers, though some did prevent them from working at nearby franchise locations. During his 2020 presidential campaign, Biden made frequent use of this talking point, even earning the rebuke of left-leaning fact checkers. Biden said, “Thirty million workers have to sign non-compete agreements for the jobs they take. Thirty million. So a cashier at a burger place can’t walk across town and take the same job at another burger place and make a few bucks more.

AUDIENCE: Booo —
THE PRESIDENT: It just changed. Well, they just changed it because we exposed it. That was part of the deal, guys. Look it up. “
