The Congress Member, Ro Khanna, is alarmed on mass layoffs in the American economy resulting from the failure of President Donald Trump’s economic policies, including more than 4,000 factory workers who have lost their jobs this week due to layoffs or factories.
Thursday, the automaker Stellantis, citing conditions created by Trump prices, announced temporary layoffs for 900 workers, represented by the United Auto Workers (UAW). “Affected American employees,” reportedCnn“Works in five different Midwest plants: Warren and Sterling stamp factories in Michigan, as well as the Indiana transmission plant, the Kokomo transmission plant and the Kokomo molding plant, all in Kokomo, Indiana.”
In a wire on social networks on Saturday evening, the representative Ro Khanna (D -Calif.) – A legislator who advocated aloud, including in books and in the congress, for an industrialization policy that would bring manufacturing jobs to the United States – posed a litany of other dismissals announced recently in the way in which American workers and chaos were raised.
“This week”, wrote Khann, “19 factories had mass layoffs, 15 closed and 4,134 factories across America lost their jobs. Cleveland fliffps dismissed 1,200 workers in Michigan and Minnesota because they deal with the impact of Trump prices on steel and automobile imports.”
“We need jobs and currently, at present, the majority of the companies with which we work and represent our members not to hire.” —Mark Depaoli, Uaw
For union leaders representing these Cleveland-Cliffs workers, they said that “chaos” was the word operating. “Chaos. You know? A lot of questions. You have a lot of people who have worked there for a long time who are potentially losing their job,” said Bill Wilhelm, service representative and editor of the local UAW 600, told Local ABC News Affiliate Wxyz-Channel 7.
UNITED car workers claim that the dismissal fund reserved for those who lose their jobs will not last long and find new jobs of this quality will not be easy. “Our first concern will be to look around all the companies where we have members and to see if we can find jobs,” said the 1st local vice-president Mark Depaoli. “I mean, jobs will be the key. We need jobs and currently, for the moment, the majority of the companies we work and represent our members not to hire.”
The pain of workers in Dearborn families, as the Khanna thread indicates, is only the tip of the iceberg. In Post after post, he cataloged a flow of new layoffs with an impact on workers nationwide and in various sectors:
Workers in the public sector being dismissed in massive number at the national level due to the blitzkrieg unleashed by the Ministry of Elon Musk, or DOGE, or DOGE, private sector workers are not unrelated to mass layoffs within an American economy dominated by business interests and union density still to historical slowdowns.
The Léopold, executive director of the Labor Institute who has rang the alarm for years on the devastation associated with mass layoffs, recently wrote on the way in which the situation is even worse than he has already understood. In addition to the greed of existing companies and the phenomena of acquiring shares that stimulate many mass licensees in the private sector, Trump mismanagement on prices and commercial policy is almost sure to worsen things, triggering more loss of jobs in addition to higher costs on consumer goods.
In order to fight Trump, Leopold wrote last month, “Democrats should take a Trump page and put employment protection in addition to their program. While prices bite and cause job destruction, Democrats should present themselves and support these relaxed workers.”
Instead of simply calling Trump’s prices “crazy”, which many have just so so, the Democrats “should call them Work killers“Consulté Leopold”. As prices are increasing, they can also blame Trump for this. “”
With Trump’s economic policies that oppose more in -depth vision, the image is dark for large and small companies – and that means more pain for workers.
As Axios“Ben Berkowitz reported on Saturday. “When everything becomes more expensive everywhere because of the prices, it also starts a cycle for companies-which could end with layoffs, bankruptcies and higher prices for survivors’ customers,” he said. “The cycle is just beginning now, but the pain is immediate.”
The “big image”, continued Berkowitz, is as follows:
The stock market is not the economy, but if you want a decent proxy for companies on the main street, look at the Russell 2000, a large measure of small businesses on the stock market in all industries. – It is down almost 20% this year.
– It does not make itself a business turning off the lights, but that said something about the public’s confidence in their prospects.
– “The market is like a real -time survey … It will have an impact on all companies in one way or another without a doubt,” Mahoney Asset Management on Friday.
Khanna Democrat Colleague in the House, Texas Lloyd Doggett representative said that Trump’s pricing and austerity impacts are very real and have already felt in his district when he was roasting Trump for having undergone a reported golf weekend, as global rollers and American workers and retirees suffer:
On the question of silence and which will defend American workers – whether in the public or private sector – it is not clear that will emerge as their true defender.
“Imagine if the unions of federal workers and the officials of the Democratic party presented themselves at the door of the factory of a company that was about to close its doors to finance bought stocks for its billionaire owners,” Leopold wrote in early March. “A demonstration of support for their colleagues victims of dismissal and a message of unit aimed at stopping the destruction of billionaire employment would be simple to make and easy to share. This would be news.”
“Why don’t Democrats do that?” He asked.
