Here’s one such report:
“United Auto Workers vice president Joe Ashton, speaking before a UAW strategy conference in Detroit, said that GM is planning to rehire roughly 2000 laid-off workers and bring the company back to full employment by September.
“Those people will all be back at work in September,” said Ashton, who is also the head of GM union members. “We will have full employment in September for the first time in a long time.”
Uhhh, pardon the interruption but if that is so, why is the US Department of Labor giving an $8.3 million dollar grant to the state of Tennessee for retraining laid off Saturn corporation workers?
And how many of those laid off NUMMI employees in Fremont, California are coming back to work?
How many workers were lost by suppliers in GM and Chrysler’s Bankruptcy never to work again in auto supply chain?
