It is unacceptable that General Motors try to
close a plant after making an agreement that guarantees stability to the workers.

We here in Brazil, in Sao Jose dos Campos (Sao Paulo), are suffering enormous
pressure the company to be lowered our wages. We do not accept these proposals. Do
granting the company does not guarantee jobs, the reality has shown.

We are together with all who are currently supporting the struggle of you. Partners,
you can count on the metalworkers of Sao Jose dos Campos (Sao Paulo, Brazil).

We need to globalize the struggle.
