No Contract? No Axles!
Join UAW Local 2093 and President Shawn Fain on Sunday at 10 pm ET — just two hours before the strike deadline — as they announce next steps and whether American Axle has proposed a fair deal or not.
Live on UAW Facebook, X, and YouTube.
Congratulations to our @UAW siblings at American Axle on ratifying their historic new contract, where workers will receive $30 an hour by 2030, increased time off and more! ✊

"30 by 30."
That's $30 by 2030. That's what UAW Local 2093 members demanded. And that's what they're going to get.
UAW Local 2093 members have always known their own power at American Axle. They recognized that it was their sacrifices 18 years ago that kept this plant alive in Three Rivers, MI, after the Great Recession. And they flexed that power on STRIKE -- to win their fair share of all the success this company's seen in recent years.
Congratulations to these brave men and women for lifting up their entire community with this victory!
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!

Workers at American Axle in Three Rivers have had to sacrifice to keep the company afloat, some sleeping in the cars. Now, because of those sacrifices, the company made $8.4 billion in the last decade. The brave workers or UAW local 2093 HAVE EARNED the right to a fair deal. Solidarity Forever ✊🏼✊🏼
✊ While union workers slept in their cars to help American Axle rebound, the company has generated $8.4 billion in profits, and the CEO has been paid $111 million. Now, they refuse to negotiate a fair contract. Our statement: https://t.co/uj25JhyzM2
UAW Local 2093 members will not stand for retaliation, just as they will not stand for concessions.
American Axle has threatened and intimidated UAW members as they fight for a fair contract. The UAW has filed Unfair Labor Practice charges related to American Axle’s unlawful conduct.
Tick tock, American Axle!
We're not asking for special treatment. We are demanding fair treatment!
Jon Krause from the UAW Local 2093 Bargaining Committee calls out American Axle's greed as the strike deadline approaches at midnight on May 31. Tick Tock, American Axle!
STATEMENT FROM UAW VICE PRESIDENT LAURA DICKERSON ON FATALITY AT SHARONVILLE TRANSMISSION PLANT
"The UAW is devastated to learn that a member was killed on the job at Ford's Sharonville Transmission Plant on March 16, 2026," said UAW Vice President Laura Dickerson, UAW Ford Department Director. "No one should ever go to work and never come home. It is our sacred duty as a union to protect the life, health, and safety of our members on the job. Members deserve a workplace free of threat to life and body. Our prayers are with the family, co-workers and loved ones of our fallen brother."
In 2008, workers at American Axle in Three Rivers, MI, made major sacrifices to save the facility from closure during the Great Recession.
Some workers took a pay cut of up to $14 an hour.
Now, inspired by the success of the UAW's 2023 Stand Up Strike at Ford, GM, and Stellantis, American Axle workers are ready to make up for nearly two decades of lost wages and benefits.
