Shawn Fain, president of the United Auto Workers speaks as U.S. President Joe Biden joins striking members of the United Auto Workers on the picket line outside GM's Willow Run Distribution Center, in Belleville, Wayne County, Michigan, U.S. on Sept. 26.United Auto Workers President Shawn Fain said on Wednesday the union will “pull out all stops” in working to organize non-union U.S. auto plants after winning new contracts with the Detroit Three auto makers.
“We’re going to pull out all stops. We’re going to leverage every avenue we can and we’re going to find creative ways to get to workers,” Fain said. “We’re going to employ everything we can to support workers and give them what they need.”Fain said the UAW deserved credit for Toyota Motor decision’s last week to raise the wages of non-union U.S. factory workers. He said previously Toyota hiked wages “because the company knows we’re coming for ’em.
The UAW has tried and failed for years to organize non-union U.S. auto factories, most of them built by Asian and European legacy auto makers in southern U.S. states where so-called “right to work” labour laws make it optional for workers to pay union dues.
