Cummins workers on Strike

Hi my name is Mike Nelson. I'm the Shop Steward for Cummins, been there for 21yrs. This shop used to be a great place to work when it was owned by an independent  owner who cared and respected the work force. Cummins corporation took over a couple yrs ago, their mind set is too satisfy Shareholders and stockholders. They took this distributor and turned it upside down. I had forty three guys working here when Corp took over, I have thirty three now. My brothers and I have been without a renewed contract for 20 months now, and our last raise was Nov 2018. The reason for this strike is that they  want to take away our kaiser plan that this location has had for 60 yrs and replace it with their  HSA plan ,which is a high deductible plan. We have been on strike for 2 weeks now. No word from  our Corp office at all. Some of our young men just bought homes, have newborns, getting married, divorces  and our seasoned techs are ready for retirement . As of July 1st Cummins will cancel our medical insurance. Just asking for a little Help. Mike Nelson
