American Workers, you are hundreds of thousands, millions; you cannot leave for anyplace; there are not enough passports for you.
Should fascism come to power, it will ride over your skulls and spines like a terrific tank. Your salvation lies in merciless struggle!

I love the UAW more than I do my own union. My life was forever changed when I joined a UAW picket line. The admiration I have for this union was expressed in a book. This called strike by UAW Staff United hurts me greatly. I stand in solidarity with the staff workers who keep our unions running!
