UAW Goes to Washington with Campaign to Keep the Promise at Stellantis

UAW members from Stellantis plants across the country rallying Thursday with allies to make sure company meets its U.S. investment commitments


WHAT:
       Keep The Promise at Stellantis Rally

WHERE:     Near the Washington Hilton – Rally will be in courtyard at Southwest Corner of Florida Ave NW & T Street NW

WHEN:      Thursday, Oct. 10, 1:00 p.m.


WASHINGTON —
 The campaign to Keep The Promise at Stellantis is coming to Washington.

UAW members, lawmakers and allies are rallying on Thursday to demand that Stellantis keep its promise to invest in good American jobs.

UAW members at Stellantis won $19 billion in product and investment commitments from the company during last year’s Stand Up Strike. Those commitments include the reopening of an idled assembly plant in Belvidere, Illinois. Now, the company is trying to backtrack on that and other contractually required investments.

“Stellantis made a promise to invest in America and we’re making sure they keep the promise,” said UAW President Shawn Fain. “The commitments we won in our contract aren’t goals, they’re guarantees. The company claims they don’t have the money to make these investments. But since the year began, they’ve dumped more than $3 billion into stock buybacks. They have the money to Keep The Promise.”

In the 2023 contract, the UAW won the right to file grievances and to strike if the company fails to meet product and investment commitments.

This August, UAW locals representing tens of thousands of Stellantis workers began filing grievances with the company over the failure to reopen the assembly plant in Belvidere, Illinois, and to build the next generation Dodge Durango in Detroit. Once the grievance procedure is exhausted under the national contract, the union may authorize a strike.

Two UAW locals at Stellantis have already passed strike authorization votes and more locals are on track to hold strike votes soon. A strike at one or more Stellantis facilities could begin within weeks.

Thursday’s Keep the Promise Rally will begin at 1:00 p.m. near the Washington Hilton.
