There is a new post published on the UAWLAP.org Site.
Details of the post follow.
UAW-Ford Negotiation Update
The UAW has a commitment to its members to settle contracts and disputes with
management through thorough and well planned negotiations, not strikes. Contrary
to anti-union propaganda, the vast majority of UAW contracts have been settled
at the bargaining table without resorting to strike action. Nevertheless, there
are times when talks alone don't succeed in resolving issues, thus the need to
strike if all other avenues fail.
Yesterday morning, communication was sent out to our local leadership to
commence scheduling Strike Authorization Votes for National and Local
Negotiations beginning the week of August 24 th, with results being turned in
before September 4, 2015.
All members in the bargaining unit will be given due notice of where and when
the strike vote will take place and may vary from location to location. Only
members in good standing are eligible to vote.
We encourage every active member to participate in this vote and to authorize a
strike if needed.
