The UAW ‘Fights Back’ Against Stellantis Plan To Lay Off 2,500 Michigan Workers

Cameron Harrison at People’s World reports on the United Auto Workers’ (UAW) efforts to fight back against Stellantis, which has threatened massive layoffs at its Warren, Michigan Truck Plant. The company may indefinitely lay off as many as 2,450 of the 3,700 Workers employed there.  Workers there build an older version of the Ram 1500 pickup called the Tradesman. The layoffs could start as early as October 8th, according to the Associated Press.  Stellantis is shifting production of the newest model of the Tradesman to another Assembly Plant.  In response, UAW President Shawn Fain had this to say: “The American taxpayer has invested in Stellantis.  Workers have invested in Stellantis.  Consumers have invested in Stellantis.  It’s time for Stellantis to invest in us.”
