What we do

Children in Michigan get a better start in life thanks to UAW Local 7127 and its 40,000 members of Child Care Providers Together Michigan.

For nearly all of our 75 years the UAW has been organizing all kinds of workers. And whether we are academic student employees and T-shirt silk screeners or health care professionals and zookeepers, we have one thing in common: We are all card-carrying UAW members.

In this issue's cover story we feature what our members do in a wide variety of UAW workplaces. We provide child care and help renew your driver's license. We are EMS technicians, ferry-boat captains and firefighters. We produce beer, butter and ice cream, and we make construction and forestry equipment, and rockets.

Belonging to our union of all workers, UAW members know that no matter what the job, the benefits of having a voice in the workplace is something all workers deserve.
