A Message to UAW Members at General Motors
Dear Brothers and Sisters: Your bargaining committee appreciates the sacrifice and solidarity
of our members as we worked to achieve key gains through the Collective Bargaining Process.
From the outset your brothers and sisters, local leaders and bargaining team members identified key areas of concern to focus on throughout this process: a clear pathway for temporary workers to full-time status; shortening the in-progression period; maintaining our current health plan and costs; improving our share of profits; as well as protecting job security and future work.
We are pleased to announce that thanks to your solidarity and sacrifice, we have achieved gains toward all of these bargaining priorities.
Collective bargaining is never easy. We don't expect it to be easy. And striking is never an easy decision but your sacrifices reminded General Motors of the power and might of SOLIDARITY. Brothers and sisters, we stood up with one loud, clear voice and said: "No More."
Together, we lasted one day longer. This bargaining agreement is the result of your strength and sacrifice. This contract is the product of the efforts of us all. SOLIDARITY FOREVER.
In solidarity,
Gary Jones, President International Union, UAW
Terry Dittes, Vice President and Director
UAW-GM Department
