Hundreds of workers are expected in Cleveland, North Carolina today at a rally demanding reinstatement of five UAW local bargaining committee members fired by Freightliner. Allen Bradley is one of the workers fired over a year ago after staging a strike against concessions.

[Bradley]: “The workers are tired of being ran over. And we're tired of corporate unionism."

Freightliner is shutting down it’s operation today. Bradley says he's not sure if it's connected to the rally.
