Support the GM workers, by never buying a GM vehicle again! That'll teach GM and allow GM workers a big win.
Now all of a sudden the notorious anti-union Justme has converted to pro-union because Trump says so.I love watching liberals burn their own homes, keep up the good work union workers, shut GM down for good! You don't need those damn GM jobs, stand up for your principles and get a job some where else.
A United Auto Workers strike at General Motors Co. GM -0.35%▲ appeared headed into its ninth day, in a work stoppage that has led to layoffs for thousands of workers at GM facilities in the U.S. and Canada.Burn you houses down, union member burn them all down! Rest assured your union leaders are still getting their full pay and will all have their jobs when this is all over. In the mean time, GM has a chance to sell all the surplus vehicles that weren't moving, while not having to pay 46,000 workers or provide them benefits. It also has given them the opportunity to shed thousands of positions without litigation.
The strike is already the longest nationwide walkout at GM since 1970, sending some 46,000 full-time factory workers to picket lines and halting work at more than 30 of the auto maker’s U.S. plants. The UAW is pushing for better new-hire pay, fewer temp workers and the preservation of existing health-care plans, among other issues.
Striking workers are suffering the during strike. Their pay went from from $16 to $38 per hour to about $1.25 per hour, which they get out of the union’s strike fund. The UAW is also having to foot medical coverages for the 46,000 strikers, since all benefits and pay is halted during strikes lasting more than two days. The UAW has reached out to all UAW union members for contributions beyond their union dues.
The two sides were continuing negotiations on Sunday, but the tone was growing rancorous. In a letter to the company, Mr. Dittes wrote: “During your response to our proposal delivered at 9:05 a.m. today, Sunday, Oct. 6, 2019, you didn’t even have a professional courtesy to explain why you could not accept or why you rejected our package proposal for each item we addressed. We expect the company to respond and discuss the package proposal we presented yesterday. The law and basic decency require no less.”Calling on union workers, keep the strike up, the union is more important than you or your families.
Detroit — A United Auto Workers senior officer is advising the team negotiating a new contract with General Motors Co. while facing criminal charges that he conspired with union President Gary Jones and others to steal member dues. UAW Region 5 Director Vance Pearson attended negotiations in Detroit on Sunday, three days after federal prosecutors charged him with helping orchestrate a more than $1 million conspiracy that involved stealing dues and spending the money on personal luxuries, two sources told The Detroit News.The little people need to keep up their sacrifices living on 1,000 a month so the union leaders can keep their power to extort for their needs, so please help your union leaders and keep up the pressure on GM.
The criminal case focuses on lavish spending by UAW officials during a conference in Palm Springs, including $120,000 for cigars, steak dinners and drinks, and 107 rounds of golf.
With the strike at General Motors Co. GM -0.06%▲ stretching into a second month, the impact is intensifying across the Midwest economy, hitting more businesses and auto-parts suppliers reliant on GM’s U.S. factories for work.I love it! The union bosses think they can milk more from GM to fatten their bank accounts so they're willing to let their members sacrifice longer living on near poverty union wages. The workers should stop being so concerned about their own families and think of the bigger picture, the union bosses have something prove so they just need to suck it up.
The United Auto Workers struck a tentative labor agreement with GM last week, but union leaders decided Thursday to continue picketing.
