Fairfax

GM employees at the Fairfax plant in Kansas City, Kansas, narrowly voted to approve the contract with just 52% in favor, while the majority of workers at the Wentzville, Missouri, plant rejected the deal. Long-time workers should see pay rise by about 33%, while some newer workers and temps will see their pay more than double.

About 100 people gathered outside of the UAW Local 31 union hall to support striking UAW workers across the nation and their own members, who were laid off due to supply chain issues caused by the strike. Despite the layoffs, workers say they’re not deterred and remain ready to strike.

A GM plant in Wentzville, Missouri, was one of the first units of United Auto Workers to go on strike. After the layoffs of 2,000 workers at the Fairfax GM plant in Kansas City, Kansas, the union is only escalating its efforts.

The United Auto Workers could expand its strike against the Big 3 automakers, as the union ramps up pressure amid tough negotiations over a new contract. This week, General Motors temporarily laid off most of the 2,000 unionized workers at its assembly plant in Kansas City, Kansas.

General Motors had previously warned it would need to stop production at its Fairfax, Kansas, assembly plant, because it relied on parts that came from a Missouri plant that is currently on strike.

General Motors says the strike that shut down the Wentzville plant near St. Louis means there may not be enough parts to assemble cars in Kansas City, Kansas.
