UAW members at Lockheed Martin in Colorado and Florida have voted to REJECT the company’s latest offer overwhelmingly. The members are the highest authority. It’s time to make things right at Lockheed Martin. Stay tuned.

  • Yeah me neither. I suppose there was union negotiations snd part of the deal meant not contributing to the genocide (hard to do when your whole company’s thing is weaponry for the US and it’s allies), but I don’t understand the significance of the union rejecting the deal.

      which part should i be sympathetic towards? their part of “making things right” is to be fairly compensated for making flesh shredder missiles and getting veterans day off? higher pensions?

      i wish them maximally unsafe working conditions and finding consciousness if available

        I’m not defending the UAW workers who work for Lockheed Martin, far from it. I was just confused as to the point of the post was. Imperial core proletariat unionizing for better working conditions at the child murder factory is very on par with everything I’ve learned about imperial core workers as a class, with few and notable exceptions.
