For those that don't know, the UAW posted on a private members only FB page a nasty opinion of Hillary's Sunday night debate comments concerning the auto bailout. In a close race, was it the difference?

The UAW has members in next weeks open primaries in IL, MO, and OH too.

The UAW still has not endorsed for POTUS.

Bernie Sanders tells cheering crowd in Dearborn: If we can rebuild villages in Iraq and Afghanistan, we can rebuild Flint

Speaking Monday night to a cheering crowd at the United Auto Workers (UAW) Local 600 hall in Dearborn, U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders called to rebuild Flint as he blasted free trade agreements that he said have devastated manufacturing and the middle class in Michigan.

"The middle class is disappearing," Sanders exhorted Monday night. "We don't need unfettered trade. We need fair trade."

Sanders' message connected with the audience inside a union hall known for its long history of activism. The audience often broke out in cheers and chants of "Bernie, Bernie" as Sanders railed against Wall Street, corporations, and trade deals such as NAFTA and TPP.

Under his proposals, he said, "we will create millions of jobs, rebuilding our crumbling infrastructure...we will have a trade policy that works for the workers, not just the CEOs of corporate America."
