Plant workers faced with losing their jobs in the next six months are raising their voices.

INDIANAPOLIS (WTHR) - It's a busy Friday night in the Shartzner household on the city's west side.

"Baby K" as her family calls her, just turned 5 this week. Her parents, Josh and Scarlet are trying to get ready for her birthday party planned for Saturday.

"We can't make it nothing bigger. We're trying to save money," Scarlet said.

The Shartzners are counting every penny right now. That's because a few weeks ago, Josh found out his job at Rexnord Bearings Plant is likely moving to Mexico in April, along with more than 300 others. That announcement came eight months after Carrier announced it was relocating 1,400 jobs to Mexico.

"I don't know if we'll be able to afford the house," said Josh, shaking his head.

"My wife and my kids are worried to death," he added.

"I don't know. I can't even think how we can do it now," Scarlet said of the bills they have to pay.

"It's just sick what these companies are doing to people," Josh said.

That kind of anger and frustration brought this father and close to 100 other co-workers, members of United Steel Workers Local 1999, out to the streets Friday afternoon for a rally outside the plant.

"What are you going to do when they come outsource your job to Mexico? That's the question," said Draper Alumbaugh, holding up a sign that said, "Keep it in America," as passing cars honked their horns.

It's a question many at the rally said they hope President-elect Donald Trump can answer after he campaigned on the promise to bring jobs back to the United States.

"I'm hopeful that the president does what he says he's going to do and actually tries to stop some of this that's leaving the country," Alumbaugh said.

"He talked a good talk and he swayed a lot of votes," said Shartzner, who admitted the soon-to-be-President didn't sway his vote.

"I remember when he was a Democrat before he was a Republican. That's why he's a wild card to me. I don't know where the guy is," said Shartzner.

He said he believes he was in the minority when it comes to how working middle class voters saw the choice between Trump and Clinton.

"She lost touch," Shartzner said of Clinton.

"She counted on organized labor to back her, which everybody always has in the past and they didn't," he added.

Now, all this father can hope for is that those who voted for Trump turn out to be right.

"If he can really do it, then maybe I'll change my tune about him," said Shartzner.

Until then, the only tune Shartzner is thinking about is the one he'll be singing to his little girl.

"Seeing her happy will make me happy. That's what it's about," he said, adding he wished his company understood it was also about something else.

"Whatever happened to taking care of your fellow man?" Shartzner asked.
