The taxpayer funded bailout of GM and Chrysler, to the tune of more than $60 billion, was meant to save jobs and allow deserving American corporations to survive. But GM and Chrysler now want to throw professional auto delivery drivers onto the unemployment lines and replace them with carriers using less reliable drivers.

The restructuring of the auto industry required shared sacrifice not just of the companies, but also of the suppliers and auto delivery employees. Auto delivery employees have already taken steep wage cuts, upwards of 17.5 percent, to ensure the long-term viability of the auto industry and of auto carrier companies. Even if the automakers make these cuts, the cost savings would be very small. Even worse, this cost reduction would not be passed on to either dealers or consumers.

Representative Joe Baca from California is collecting signatures for a letter to GM and Chrysler to help save these jobs. Please help by sending an e-mail to your Representative today asking for sign-on to this important letter.
