Auto workers at Arlington’s GM assembly plant all set to strike
Around 150,000 thousand autoworkers across the country will strike if requests are met after the day. That could significantly affect the General Motors assembly plant in Arlington.
The three largest automakers have until Thursday night to arrive at a conclusion. If they can’t, laborers
will protest, including about 5,000 workers in Arlington.
In a social media post, the leader of the United Auto workers union made sense of that the strike would occur in gatherings, and not all offices would picket all the while.
Up to this point, the UAW has dismissed offers from Portage, GM, and Stellantis, which incorporates Chrysler, Evade, and Jeep, and that’s just the beginning.
The neighborhood association addressing the laborers at the Arlington assembly plant said they’re having a watch party Thursday night to check whether they will be one of the gatherings to strike first.
“We are ready to roll. This is what we came to do. We came to stand up for our wages,” said Keith Crowell, the president of UAW Local 276. “When the union wins, the public wins. We’ve been setting the tone for wages and the middle class long.”
“These people do work hard. Even with all the robotics, factory work of their type is still hard work, and we’ve had some reasonably severe inflation. Many of these workers say they want to catch up and be prepared for the next round of inflation.
The association needs a double-digit pay increase during the 30% territory upgraded benefit sharing, and that’s only the tip of the iceberg.
In a proclamation, GM said it would arrive at an understanding that works for its colleagues.
If they don’t, the specialists in Arlington could be picketing on Friday morning.
