The United Auto Workers union escalated its walkout against Detroit's Big Three automakers by going on strike at the largest and most profitable Ford plant.
The United Auto Workers union significantly escalated its walkout against Detroit's Big Three automakers, shutting down Ford's largest factory and threatening Jeep maker Stellantis. In a surprise move Wednesday night, 8,700 members left their jobs at Ford’s Kentucky truck plant in Louisville. And Thursday morning, union President Shawn Fain hinted at further action against Stellantis.
Fain, Masters said, likely is testing how far he needs to push Ford before going to “full throttle,” by taking all 57,000 Ford members out on strike. The union’s move doesn’t leave him optimistic for a quick end to the strikes, Masters said. “I think the issues that remain on the table are quite thorny,” he said, pointing to union demands that all workers get defined benefit pensions and health insurance when they retire. The UAW expanded its strikes Sept.
