My attempt:
Parece que el gobierno les da la espalda a los obreros.

I, too, like Natasha's translation, but I wonder if "working class" isn't closer to "clase trabajadora" or "clase obrera." "Obreros" seems closer to "workers" to me.
Minor, but still.
I would say "clase obrera" fits better, but it's maybe a regional thing.

In Mexico the communist party, or workers' party, is called el partido de los trabajadores. Just a thought.

Just kidding. Thanks for pointing that out; I read the Spanish sentence and didn't pay attention to the English one.
