Sunday 10/1 #StandUpUAW Solidarity ACTION Call

Start: 2023-10-01 15:00:00 UTC Pacific Daylight Time (US & Canada) (GMT-07:00)

This is a virtual event

The United Auto Workers (UAW) just kicked off a historic Stand Up Strike at General Motors, Ford, and Stellantis (‘Big 3 Auto’ companies). Despite corporate media’s attempts to pit environmentalists and activists against auto workers, 120+ climate and social justice organizations have signed an open letter to Big 3 Auto CEOs demanding that they meet UAW’s contract demands and ensure that the auto industry’s clean energy transition is a just transition too. With 41 Big 3 plants across 20 states on strike so far, now is a crucial moment for UAW’s community and movement allies to show up and support.

On Sunday 10/1 at 3 PT/6 ET, climate, social justice, and movement organizations, as well as UAW, are hosting a Solidarity action call to share how people anywhere in the country can take action in support of UAW, followed by a nationwide Day of Action on Saturday, 10/7.

This is a historic moment, and we need all hands on deck! Join us for this special call on Sunday, 10/1.
