Nearly 1,000 @UAW members at American Axle in Three Rivers are on strike after years of sacrifice to keep the plant open. It's time they get the fair contract they've earned. We stand with UAW Local 2093!

"If it's a week, if it's a month, if it's six months — I'm here."

American Axle workers know their time is now, and they're ready to strike for as long as it takes to win the contract they deserve.

In this economy, the rich and powerful are getting even richer, while working people scrape for crumbs as prices skyrocket on everything.

A union contract is how we take back our power in this economy. Join the movement:

Today, the NALC Executive Council and branch and state association presidents from across the country gathered for the first day of the Collective-Bargaining Conference in Washington, DC. Attendees were briefed on negotiations and shared their ideas and feedback as we work together for a fair contract.

@UAW Local 2093 members have negotiated in good faith for months. Now, they are standing together and demanding what they have earned.

I was proud to stand with UAW members when they kicked off negotiations for a record contract back in March, and I am proud to #StandTALL with them today as they fight for the fair wages, strong benefits, safe workplaces, and respect every worker deserves.

My full statement:

UAW Local 2093 members at American Axle’s Three Rivers plant are ON STRIKE after the company refused a fair deal. While execs took home millions, workers are fighting for basic dignity. No Contract? No Axles!

This morning I walked with the striking workers of @UAW Local 2093 in Three Rivers. They are seeking a fair contract and compensation for the years they’ve invested at American Axle. While billions of company profits are reported, some workers are sleeping in their cars.

[Eli Savit @EliNSavit]

Proudly joined striking @uaw workers on the lines at American Axle this morning.

In 2008, workers took massive pay cuts—many from $29 to $14.50 an hour—to save the company.

Now, billions in profit later, it’s past time for American Axle to pay its workers a fair wage.
