Local 23 shouts down GM plan
Indianapolis Star, by Ted Evanoff


The fight to keep GM's huge Indianapolis stamping plant open reached a dead end Sunday after defiant autoworkers meeting in a union hall shouted "no" to discussion of pay cuts.

With workers dug in, General Motors looks likely to go ahead with closing plans and post a timeline as early as Tuesday for taking out the dies and machinery, said Maurice "Mo" Davison, UAW Region 3 director.

"The sad fact is GM is gone from Indianapolis. That's a fact," Davison said. "It's a sad day for Indianapolis."

tell me sparks...why does working an assembly line doing the same exact thing over and over each and every day command 30-35 dollars and hour?
