UAW President Gary Jones said in a statement:

When I lived in Michigan my UAW neighbors all did pretty much fit the dictionary definition of "lemmings".

I haven’t bought a UAW-built car in the past 50 years, and I won’t in the next 50 years either. At least until they learn to put this country, and their companies, first - rather than simply let themselves be a branch of the Democrat party.

“Economy slowing so now is the political time to make it worse - of course.”
First thing I thought was the DNC gave UAW leadership its marching orders.

The Unions will probably Strike the weakest of the Auto companies for the best contract then the rest usually follow.

Voting to authorize a strike is far different that voting to strike.
The authorization simply allows a strike vote to take place if the contract is rejected.
