The Local Story: ALERT: American Axle, UAW Reach Deal (Via WXYZ.com)
DETROIT (AP) — An American Axle and Manufacturing Holdings Inc. spokeswoman confirms the auto parts supplier has reached a tentative agreement with the United Auto Workers that could end an 11-week strike.
Spokeswoman Renee Rogers says she doesn’t have any details on the deal, reached late Friday. It’s not clear when the agreement will be presented to union members.
The walkout by about 3,600 workers at five factories had crippled truck and sport utility vehicle manufacturing at General Motors Corp.
The company makes axles, drive shafts and stabilizer bars for GM, Chrysler LLC and other automakers.
GM was forced to partially or fully close more than 30 factories and lay off thousands of workers because of parts shortages.
Glad to see that these two got their differences settled and are getting back to work, considering the economic conditions in this area, this was no time to sit out a long strike, I’m glad to see that all parties are back to work and production will be able to continue.
I suppose some of you are expecting me to make a anti-union comment, sorry, I, as an independent thinker, believe that unions have a right to exist and stand up for the right of those whom the represent, yes, I am aware of the corruption that exists in some, but not all, of the unions, but that does not mean that the unions do not serve their proper purpose. I also realize that, thanks to the Hillary Clinton and her idiot husband, that passed the NAFTA agreement, the unions standing in America has been diminished somewhat, hopefully, the next President, of whom it seems Obama will be that person, will fix that lopsidedness of that agreement or opt out of it. Thus restoring the unions rightful place in America.
By that as it may, I wish the workers at American axle all the best, and now, get back to work!
