Dear Brothers and Sisters:
Over the past eight weeks, the International Executive Board, UAW National Ford Department, local leadership teams, and our membership have been pushed to the limit. We have all been hit hard emotionally, mentally, and spiritually by this terrible pandemic. Our UAW-Ford family has endured uncertainty with layoffs, virus infections and personal losses. Sadly, 11 UAW-Ford members have lost their battle with COVID-19. As we continue to mourn these losses, our prayers and sympathies go out to their families, friends, and communities.
