Laurie Mercier speaks to Dianne Feeley, a retired autoworker and editor of Against the Current, about UAW president Shawn Fain’s disappointing embrace of Trump’s tariffs and the need for labor internationalism to strengthen workers’ power in the U.S. and across borders.
Feeley's article "A Setback for Auto Workers’ Solidarity" offers a critique of The UAW Statement “In a Victory for Autoworkers, Auto Tariffs Mark the Beginning of the End of NAFTA and the ‘Free Trade’ Disaster, ” and also links to additional articles on tariffs and international labor issues.
