UAW 2166 would like to welcome you to our new webpage where you can find out information
about UAW 2166, products we produce and what we stand for. Our GM plant and local union are located in the northwest corner of Louisiana bordering Texas and Arkansas in Shreveport, Louisiana. We
produce the Colorado and Canyon small pickup trucks as well as the Hummer H-3. We are scheduled to produce the new Hummer HT truck later this year. We are so proud of the fine men and women of Local
2166 who make all this possible by all the hard work they perform. They have always met the many challenges we face with a strong work ethic whether it is a plant, community or political endeavor. Our
UAW 2166 members are indeed something we all can be proud of.
