Workers are furious at hedge fund billionaire John Paulson — who has publicly praised Trump's tariffs as necessary to protect domestic manufacturing jobs — after he told union officials he intended to offshore most of the work at Conn Selmer by June, reported The Guardian.
“To go publicly on CNBC to support the Trump administration’s positive views on tariffs and all that stuff, and then you turn around and [say you] want to go send the work right over to China,” said Robert Hines, president of UAW Local 2359 and a worker at the plant. “It’s a slap in our face.”
Workers were informed the East Lake plant, which is the largest U.S. manufacturer of brass and orchestra instruments, last month at the start of negotiations for a new union contract.
"We came in with a full proposal, fully prepared to bargain, and they started off with a presentation of telling us how bad we were doing," Hines said.
