Friend,
Right now, the United Auto Workers (UAW) union is fighting against three corporate titans for better labor standards, and the climate movement is ready to stand with them. A fair transition to a clean energy future means building an economy that supports workers and communities.
But the Big Three automakers—GM, Ford, and Stellantis—want to drive a false narrative that says supporting clean cars is not in line with worker protections. This is just not true.
That's why we need your help spreading the word that the climate movement supports a clean energy transition that benefits workers. |
Automakers must get the message that competing in the new economy means investing in their workers to build skill, trust, and power—not hoarding the benefits of a clean vehicle boom. A viable climate future is one in which prosperity is broadly shared.
President Biden has already backed UAW's position and indicated that he’s ready to fight for workers. Now it's on us to amplify the message that the deployment of clean vehicles is inseparable from justice for the workers building them.
Spread the message by posting our latest blog to your social media channels—we've made it easy, with pre-drafted posts for major social platforms.
