THREE RIVERS, MI (WKZO AM/FM) – United Auto Workers union members at American Axle in Three Rivers are now on strike.
UAW president Shawn Fain announced last night that time was up for the manufacturer of drive axles for General Motors, Stellantis, and Nissan.
American Axle and the employees agreed to a 50% pay cut during the Great Recession in 2008 to keep the facility open, but the union says the cut has not been fully restored.
They also want better healthcare, stronger retirement benefits, and profit sharing.
