OHIO ASSEMBLY PLANT STRIKE AUTHORIZATION VOTE
The Unit 1 Local and National Contracts and the Unit 2 National Contract will expire on September 14th, 2023 at midnight. We are required by the International Union to take a strike vote to authorize both the Local and International Union to strike, if necessary. While we are still in the early stages of UAW / Ford national negotiations, we strongly encourage everyone to continue preparations for a potential strike.
WHERE: UAW Local 2000, 3151 Abbe Rd., Sheffield Village, OH
WHEN: Tuesday, August 22, 2023 – 5:00 AM to 7:00 PM
It is CRITICAL that we have high voter participation for a strike vote, so VOTE YES!! This affects YOU!
PLEASE NOTE: In order to receive strike assistance information in the event of a strike, we must have your correct address and phone number. Please update your contact information via email at linda@uawlocal2000.org, phone at 440.934.3151 Ext. 0 to update your records.
Once we are on strike, a secure link and code will be available for each member to access the registration page. You will be required to register online so please have this information ready. Since strike pay will only be direct deposited, you will need your bank account and routing numbers. You will also need a personal email address (not associated with Ford). We will have people to help assist if need be. Your phone number and address must match what we have on file or you will not be able to register. Please note: Registration is currently not available. That information will be cascaded down as soon as we receive it. The union hall will be open 24/7 for the duration of the strike. All elected and appointed reps, including some standing committee members, will be assigned to strike captain duty.
Bill Samples, President / Brian Maust, Chairperson Unit 1 / Angela Mullins, Chairperson Unit 2
