The following resolution passed at the UAWD Mid-Year General Membership Meeting held on January 30, 2022.
A resolution to revise the following plank of the UAWD caucus platform (new text added in bold):
We believe an explicit focus on international solidarity is fundamental to building real long term solutions to the current global race to the bottom. We should seek strong alliances with workers in the same industries, no matter where they are. Corporations don’t respect national boundaries, especially of the poorer countries, where workers are denied humane labor and environmental standards, and the right to form unions. It is essential that we as American workers show our solidarity and lend them our support as part of a common fight against the “race to the bottom.” The corporations are global, the labor movement must be global too, if we want to make lasting gains as a working class. As part of this, UAWD supports the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement, called for by Palestinian unions and workers, and seeks to end all UAW investments in corporations perpetuating human rights violations.
