Solidarity Rally with Locked Out UAW Honeywell Workers!     Follow the NWU!    Rally to Join us in supporting our locked-out sisters and brothers at UAW Local 1508, Honeywell Aerospace! Wednesday, June 15   5:00pm - 7:00pm (Busses will leave from 256 W. 38th St. at 1pm and return by 10pm) Almost 400 workers, members of UAW Local 1508 in Green Island, NY and UAW Local 9 in South Bend, IN, have been locked out by Honeywell Aerospace since May 9. They were locked out after they rejected a contract that would double their health care costs, eliminate their pensions, use non-union sub-contractors and leave them at the mercy of the company. The workers at both plants make braking systems and parts for commercial and military aircraft. Their average pay is $21.83 per hour. Honeywell CEO David Cote's income last year was over $33 million, while Tim Mahoney, the head of Honeywell Aerospace received $8.6 million. What's wrong with this picture? Stand with our locked out brothers and sisters at UAW Local 158 in the fight against corporate greed! To reserve your seat on the bus, contact Scott Sommer: ssommer@uaw.net, or call 212-529-2580. In Solidarity, Larry Goldbetter President
