Warrior Met coal miners in Alabama denounce UMW president, say they will reject sellout deal
A meeting of striking coal miners in Alabama erupted in anger Wednesday afternoon after United Mine Workers (UMWA) officials presented the details of their tentative agreement with Warrior Met Coal. The miners denounced UMWA President Cecil Roberts and stormed out of the meeting, declaring that they would reject the contract when they vote on Friday because it did nothing to restore wage cuts accepted by the UMWA five years ago.
The 1,100 coal miners walked out April 1 at Warrior Met’s mines and processing facilities in Brookwood, Alabama, about 45 miles southwest of Birmingham. The striking miners are determined to recoup lost wages and abolish the company’s hated “four-strike” disciplinary program, which is used to terminate long-standing miners and replace them with low-wage contractors.
