UAW Strike To Expand This Week Unless 'Serious Progress' Is Made
The United Auto Workers union is reportedly planning to strike at more Big Three facilities starting on Friday, September 29 if “serious progress” isn’t made in labor negotiations. According to Reuters, UAW President Shawn Fain plans to announce new targets at 10 a.m. on Friday, and workers will then walk out of those sites at noon. The outlet adds that the UAW is expected to continue the walkouts currently underway until a new contract is ratified.
The UAW walkouts first started back on September 15 – the first simultaneous strikes at General Motors, Ford, and Stellantis ever. Then, on September 22nd, the union expanded its strikes against GM and Stellantis, but Ford was spared and only had to deal with just one plant being impacted. Right now, Reuters isn’t sure if Ford will be targeted in the latest round of strikes.
