"P*do Protector" Trump Heckled By American Hero

PeerTube

November 21, 1945 - 200,000 members of the United Auto Workers went on strike against General Motors, the first major strike following World War II. The UAW’s demand for a 30% wage increase was based on the increase in the cost of living during the war (28% according to the Department of Labor), the wartime freeze on wages, and the cut in the average workweek with the disappearance of overtime pay in manufacturing.

But the UAW also considered profits and prices a subject for negotiation, a position rejected by GM. The union did not merely say that labor was entitled to enough wages to live on. It also said that labor was entitled to share in the wealth produced by industry.

“... Unless we get a more realistic distribution of America’s wealth, we won’t get enough to keep this machine going.”
–Walter Reuther, UAW President

Kennedy Center Administrative Workers Reveal Unionization Push After Trump Overhaul

The group of staffers, from programming, marketing, development and other departments, is calling for “a return to ethical norms” and “freedom from partisan interference in programming.”

The Hollywood Reporter

"When U.S. President Donald #Trump announced a 25% #tariff on automotive imports, the president of the #UnitedAutoWorkers supported the move, even though it would likely result in layoffs for American and Canadian workers. In #Canada, #Unifor is deeply opposed to the tariffs, so two unions that once supported each other are now divided."
