Brothers and Sisters of Local 862,
We have been selected by the IEB International Executive Board to work with their representative this Thursday and explain what is working on our Faurecia organizing campaign in Louisville. We were successful in assisting the organizing of the Interior systems Faurecia location and now we are assisting in the Faurecia Exhaust plant. The plant manager has blasted the UAW and our members and threatened and intimidated the workers in the plant and our members working the organizing drive. We must raise the bar tomorrow!!!!! As your President I am asking our members to assist us tomorrow in the leafleting of the Faurecia Plant located near the Louisville Assembly Plant. We are in a position to help our recently unionized facility and sister plant Faurecia Interior Systems, in their request to help organize the Faurecia Exhaust Facility in Louisville. We must sacrifice in order to change the direction of union density in this town and our union. They don’t realize that we, the members of Local 862, have nothing to gain other than the simple fact that we know these workers can gain a voice in the workplace. Please join us in sending a clear message to the Exhaust facility plant manager that we are not going to be intimidated or manipulated like he does his workers. We will continue to organize and support or current and future brothers and sisters, along with improving the lives of our members and our community.
Please join us in the leafleting of the Faurecia Exhaust Facility Tomorrow the 22nd. We will meet at the LAP union hall on Fern Valley Road at 1:30 PM and then convoy to the plant located just a few miles away. We will be at the Faurecia plant location from 2PM-3PM. PLEASE WEAR A WHITE SHIRT IN SOLIDARITY FOR THESE FUTURE BROTHERS AND SISTERS. I ask this in solidarity of our membership.
The plant location is 4415 East Indian Trail Louisville, Kentucky 40213
