Mixed Reactions to GM-UAW Contract Ratification
TL;DR
Despite some local unions voting against the new United Auto Workers-General Motors contract, the majority of members are voting in favor of ratification. As of midday Wednesday, 55% of members have voted yes. However, workers at three large assembly plants have rejected the deal, including those in Fort Wayne, Indiana; Wentzville, Missouri; and Lansing Grand River, Michigan. If the contract is turned down, the UAW will face key decisions on how to proceed, including the possibility of strikes and the impact on organizing efforts at foreign-owned automakers.
