International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (I.A.M.A.W) Local 621 at Ashland Industries are the newest victims of Scott Walker’s union-busting attacks on the middle class.
For over four weeks, 43 Machinists at the earth moving equipment manufacturer in Ashland have been on strike. At issue, is not wages and benefits but the right to a strong union.
At a rally on Saturday, April 28, community members rallied in support of striking workers
The Ashland Daily Press reports that Joe Groshek, Washburn stood in solidarity with the strikers:
“I don’t know any of these individuals on strike, but if one of us is on strike, all of us are on strike. Workers have to stick together. That’s why we’re all here today supporting these folks, because they’re representing all of us, all the working people in Wisconsin and the United States.”
Rick Lunda, of Ashland, attended the rally to support his striking friends and their families. Lunda said he was not only supporting Ashland Industries workers, but to also supporting unions in general.
“Personally, I hope it opens the eyes of the companies out there. They can’t treat workers this way. It’s more than just the bottom line. It’s about fairness."
The company is attacking the union’s security and does not want to offer new hires adequate health insurance. The company claims that they are simply giving the workers a choice whether or not to join the union. The workers made their choice clear when they voted down the contract 40-0.
“It feels good to see all these people here to help our cause to get back to work again,” said James Pupp, a welder who has been employed at Ashland Industries for 10 years. “All we want is our security and our family health plan.”
The company is ramping up its corporate attacks on the workers by advertising for replacement workers in local newspapers, radio stations and on the company website.
The striking Machinists are standing up to corporate greed and fighting for every working person. They are striking to ensure that everyone who works hard and plays by the rules can have a decent paying job and a middle class life.
Scott Walker’s attacks on unions are spreading like a disease across the private sector in Wisconsin. First, it was Manitowoc Cranes, now it is Ashland Industries. This is a time to come together in solidarity to support our striking brothers and sisters. When workers come together to have a voice at work through their union we all benefit.
At this time we are asking for strike assistance in the form of money and food donations. Checks can be sent to:

在巴黎街头，一辆行驶的汽车将一个乡下人溅了满身泥。乡下人对着从车里下来的司机大喊大叫： 真不像话！这要是在我们乡下，遇到这种情况，司机会立刻从车上下来，向人家道歉，还要将他接到自己家里，为他洗干净衣服，请他喝香槟酒，并留他过夜。到第二天早晨，还要请他吃早饭，送给他钱，然后才送他离开。 司机说： 这绝对不可能！ 乡下人： 这确有其事！ 司机说： 这是你的亲身经历？ 乡下人： 是我老婆经历的。
