UAW President Shawn Fain emphasized, 'This company made a commitment to autoworkers at Stellantis in our union contract, and we intend to enforce that contract to the full extent.' His remarks highlight the union's firm stance against the automaker's perceived failure to honor commitments made under last year's contract.
The UAW has announced threats of possible strikes against Stellantis, as the union accuses the automaker of failing to reopen a closed factory in Belvidere as promised.
The union leaders referred to their intention to file grievances. The announcement comes after the successful negotiation of record pay increases for workers at Ford, GM, and Stellantis last fall.
With the Belvidere plant closure in February and Stellantis's subsequent actions, the UAW's enforcement focus aims to prevent a 'race to the bottom' for American workers, underscoring the significance of contract enforcement.
