Fantastic news.

As a white collar worker, how can I contribute to this change?

We can unionize as well and stand in solidarity with blue collar workers. The UAW strike is strong now, but if the engineers and accountants joined in that would be even more pressure on the company

Join or start a union that cooperates with other unions? As you imply yourself, the color of your collar doesn't mean you aren't a worker!
