UAW Region 6
@uawregion6.bsky.social
We are over 120,000 active & retired UAW Members in Alaska, Arizona, California, Hawai'i, Idaho, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, and Washington, organizing for a just & sustainable future for all. uawregion6.org
Building on the success of Prop 50, UAW members in California are uniting to pass a bold new bond measure to raise $23 billion for scientific research. Trump has cut research funding -on everything from cancer treatment to wildfire recovery- by billions. Join the campaign to fight back: 11/10 in SF!
