UAW Supporters to Hit the Pavement at Dealerships

Last Friday, some 5,000 Auto Workers (UAW) at 38 after-market parts distribution centers across General Motors and Stellantis joined the escalating “Stand Up Strike.” Even with the scabs GM has deployed, the dealerships that receive parts from these PDCs will soon be feeling the inventory pinch for everything from replacement bumpers to Jeep handlebars. With parts shortages come irate customers, blaming dealerships for the supply snarls caused by the Big 3 automakers. When it comes to the impact of the strike on customers, auto dealerships are where the rubber meets the road.

Labor Notes

Trump's fake auto workers event.

"One individual in the crowd who held a sign that said 'union members for Trump,' acknowledged that she wasn’t a union member when approached by a Detroit News reporter after the event. Another person with a sign that read 'auto workers for Trump' said he wasn’t an auto worker when asked for an interview. Both people didn’t provide their names."

A Blackout on The Phony “Union Members” At Trump’s Event?

Let me ask you: what coverage have you seen of ex-President Trump's event in Michigan Wednesday night? The speech was billed as a message to union autoworkers and comes amidst the on-going UAW strike.

TPM – Talking Points Memo

The strike has put the enormous pay of American CEOs in the spotlight. Mary Barra, the CEO of GM, made $29m in 2022 – 362 times the median GM worker pay. The same year, Stellantis's CEO Carlos Tavares made $24.8m , or 365 times the average worker pay; and Ford's CEO Jim Farley made $21m , or 281 times the median worker pay.

But yet, these same CEOs can't give their employees a decent wage increase

UAW auto strike: Why US Automotive CEOs make more than global competition

The UAW is demanding higher wages from executives. How do American pay packets get so big – and can strikers close the gap between CEO-worker compensation?
