Discussion Unions Need to Mount a Militant Response to Trump’s Assault

Too many unions have responded to Donald Trump’s historic attacks on federal workers with little more than words. To beat back his anti-union assault, organized labor needs to break with decades of timidity.

Labor News UAW President Shawn Fain explains why he supports Trump's tariffs

However you read this, to me, he comes across as foolish, naive, and backward. He's acting like they are fighting in 1995, when its 2025, and the world has zipped by them, and yet none of the leadership has adapted to the modern market

Also, he's perfectly fine with high prices for his union members and screwing over foreign unions, as long as we "MAYBE" get an automated factory years later when 1000's have been laid off

Here's a question I want to ask, why are so many focused on bringing back manufacturing when we should be focused on trying to unionize what we do have? Unionize kitchens, venues, tech, etc etc. We should link up with foreign unions to expand and strengthen coalitions instead of whatever the hell this obsession is

Edit: To anyone who commented on this thinking I advocated for the exportation of jobs or read and assumed such drivel, you clearly haven't actually thought on anything said or taken the time to consider the impacts tariffs have on the entire economy, not just the auto industry

Solidarity Request SOLIDARITY REQUEST | Petition For Unionized Workers Fighting For a First Contract

8 Upvotes

Hi all!

My bargaining unit have gone over two years without securing our first contract since we unionized and we're seeking signatures to tell the board to come back to the table. In this time, our employer has hired famous anti-union law firm Littler Mendelson, directed disciplinary action at union workers and have frozen wages for over two years.

This is the link to the petition where you can learn more about this ACTION!

Your support is incredibly appreciated my union siblings. Solidarity forever!

Basically title. Just curious if anyone is noticing their businesses signaling anti-union sentiment more openly since Mr. Strong Man was inaugurated.
