UAW leaders plan summit to discuss GM strike
From Staff Writer wire services
DETROIT - With signs the Flint labor dispute will continue to drag on, UAW leaders from General Motors Corp. plants across the country will meet Monday for a strategy session.
Top union officials in Detroit called for the unusual meeting, which is being billed as a UAW summit. More than 200 local union presidents and bargaining heads from the locals are expected to gather in Flint, Mich.
Strikes at the Flint Metal Center and Delphi Flint East have crippled the automaker. Deprived of essential parts, GM has closed 25 assembly plants and laid off more than 179,000 auto workers in the United States.Post your comments about local news eventsFront Page || Main Index || News || Business || Texas || South Texas Outdoors || Birdwatching || Sports || Entertainment || Selena || Education || South Texas Attractions || World Wide Web
