WSWS reports from American Axle strike in Detroit

[gregjr36]

AAM is following the steps of CATERPILLAR, stay UNION strong, don't let what happen to our Union in 1994 happen to yours. We are getting screwed at Caterpillar because of scabs, and now they are the biggest complainers. We are making way less than we use too, this is all about record profits, why aren't your CEO and vice president taking a pay cut. Look at CATERPILLAR and use them as an example to your membership, be UNITED. G-UAW LOCAL 974, E.PEORIA,IL

What happens here rolls back to other plants! Our union is in for the same fight next July. Even though we're Steelworkers we feel the importance of the AA strike. So much so that a group of us from Bowling Green, Ohio traveled and walked the lines with AA strikers. We may not be UAW members but WE ARE UNION MEMBERS! On our trip to AA we also loaded down 3 cars with groceries that we dropped at 1 of the union halls. Will be watching with interest for April 18th rally! Hang in there people!!

Dauch is nuts, no one but a fool and/or a coward is going to take a +$14 dollar paycut AND co-pay on benefits. After taxes, and benifits are taken out, you're just another poor worker.
