UAW Ready for War with Stellantis

The United Auto Workers are not messing around with Stellantis continuing to pretend like they don’t have a serious union to deal with.

The United Auto Workers’ rift with Stellantis widened Monday as the union filed federal labor charges over possibly moving production of an SUV out of the country.

The union said it filed charges with the National Labor Relations Board accusing Stellantis of illegally refusing to release information about plans to move Dodge Durango production from a Detroit factory to one in Canada.

The union also has filed grievances over the Durango and company delays in reopening a vehicle assembly plant in Belvidere, Illinois, as well as build a parts distribution center and electric vehicle battery plant there. The UAW has threatened to strike on that issue.

The union says it based the unfair labor practices charge on media reports that the Durango would be moved from the Jefferson North Assembly Plant in Detroit.

The company committed to the Belvidere additions as well as Durango production in the union’s new contract, reached last fall after a six-week strike, the UAW said.

I believe Stellantis is either hoping for a Trump victory and/or for the courts to gut the National Labor Relations Act. It has no intention of good faith bargaining. I would not be surprised to see this move toward a strike in coming months.
