Teamsters, UAW, ILA, Unite Join Together for Solidarity Day at BMW

On July 21, thousands of BMW employees in California, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and the United Kingdom stood together in solidarity to protest BMW’s plans to outsource good, middle-class jobs at its parts distribution center in Ontario, Calif.

BMW has announced it plans to fire nearly 100 Ontario employees at the end of August and immediately re-open the facility the very next day with an outsourced, inexperienced work force.

BMW received over $3.6 billion in secret low-interest loans during the 2008-2009 U.S. taxpayer bailout.
