Americans expressed overwhelming support for the United Auto Workers’ “Stand Up Strike” against Detroit’s “Big Three” automakers, according to a new poll by Extreme Terrain.
The company surveyed over 1,000 American car owners, finding that 33% owned a vehicle from one of the brands involved in the strike.
Nearly 4 in 5 Americans said they supported the union’s strike objectives, and 90% of respondents believe this strike will likely lead to similar labor movements in the near future, the report said.
“While I think they are purposely asking for more than they really expect to get, I think some version of this is what all workers deserve, especially with ballooning salaries for the higher-ups while wages for workers stagnate,” a Ford owner told Extreme Terrain.
