It's now official. The United Auto Workers union went on strike Thursday night after contract negotiations with Detroit automakers fell through. It's the first time in history that the UAW has gone on strike against the three big automakers all at once.The UAW represents 146,000 autoworkers across the country, with around 18,000 right here in Ohio.
The companies rejected pay raises for retirees who haven’t received one in over a decade, Fain said, and they are seeking concessions in annual profit-sharing checks, which often are more than $10,000. The bulk of Stellantis’s 6,600 workers can be found in and around Toledo at its Jeep Assembly complex.
So a large employer like GM, with more than 900 people, means a large check for a city like Parma, but only if those people are working and getting paid. President Joe Biden has called himself the most pro-union president ever, but supporting the UAW might put him at odds with one of his own policies—a push for electric vehicles in the coming years.
