UAW members reject tentative agreement with Mack Trucks, prep for strike Monday
The UAW announced late Sunday that 4,000 UAW members at Mack Trucks in three states have voted to reject their tentative agreement, and will strike at 7 a.m. Monday.
"I'm inspired to see UAW members at Mack holding out for a better deal, and ready to stand up and walk off the job to win it," UAW President Shawn Fain said @UAW on X, the site formerly known as Twitter.
The letter said the union voted the tentative agreement down by a 73% no vote, but did not provide the number of votes cast.
"The members have spoken and as the highest authority in our union, they have the final word," said the letter signed by Fain.
