John,
It’s officially been one week since United Auto Workers (UAW) launched their historic strike against the Big Three automakers in Detroit: GM, Ford, and Stellantis. Justice Democrats and our candidates have proudly stood in solidarity with these workers since Day 1.
Ayanna Pressley turned out for a UAW solidarity event on Capitol Hill and has been actively sharing ways for others to show their support across social media.
Rashida Tlaib joined Bernie Sanders in speaking at a UAW rally in Detroit and joined workers on the Ford picket line in Wayne, Michigan last week.
Summer Lee spoke out against corporate greed and stood in solidarity with the 140,000 striking UAW workers on the floor of the U.S. House.
Plus, AOC and Cori Bush are coming together for a solidarity rally in St. Louis this Sunday!
From the picket lines to the halls of Congress, Justice Democrats are making it loud and clear: UAW workers deserve better pay, benefits, and working conditions, and we have their backs until the Big Three deliver!
This has been a historic year for the U.S. labor movement as workers across different industries have come together to unionize and go on strike in order to say enough is enough — and your support of our work to elect progressive, working class candidates has made all the difference.
In solidarity,
Justice Democrats
