The UAW is launching its most ambitious political program in decades for an all-out effort to elect Kamala Harris as the next President of the United States. The Union’s program will include mobilizing UAW members online, at worksites, and in the field with a door-to-door program to reach members, retirees, and their families around a pro-worker, anti-Corporate Greed agenda.
On Wednesday, August 14, members will join a mass mobilization call to hear what’s at stake in this election, our union’s top issues, and how we’re building a movement to win against the billionaire class in November and beyond.
At UAWStandUp2024.org, UAW members will find resources, videos, flyers, and links to factual information around the candidates’ records, and why the UAW is ready to stand up, speak up, and show up in November.
The Union’s one million active and retired members will form a core base of support for the Harris-Walz campaign and will provide a major piece of the campaign’s margin of victory in Michigan, and in key Congressional races in battleground states like Ohio, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania. In 2020, the UAW’s membership accounted for 9.2% of Biden-Harris’ votes in Michigan alone.
The UAW’s plan to win stems from the vision that launched 2023’s Stand Up strike and movement. By putting out the facts, uniting the working class, and letting members lead the way, the UAW’s “Stand Up, Speak Up, Show Up” campaign will mobilize a mass campaign to defeat the billionaire class at the ballot box.
The campaign launch comes on the heels of two major Harris-Walz campaign events with the UAW in Michigan, following the union’s endorsement of Harris for President.
