We the members of Local #9 UAW are requesting a Call of Action from you and your organization as we return to our roots and remember the Brothers and Sisters who participated in the sit down strikes of 1936.

This event is to celebrate what our forefathers have gained for us and to help the educate others on issues workers are facing today, including an update on the 9 month long “lock-out” of Local #9 and #1508 workers at the Honeywell Aerospace facilities here in South Bend and Green Island, NY.
