The United Auto Workers union has once again escalated its strikes against Detroit Three automakers, this time adding a factory that makes Ram pickup trucks for Stellantis. The union says in a statement that 6,800 members walked out Monday morning at the Sterling Heights, Michigan, Assembly Plant, a huge profit center for the company.
With arms outstretched, U.S. Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., poses for a photo with striking workers as he visits the United Auto Workers picket line at the Stellantis Toledo Assembly Complex on Friday, Oct. 20, 2023, in Toledo, Ohio. Former Ohio Democratic representative Tim Ryan stands with United Mine Workers of America members as they support the United Auto Workers union members in their second month of a labor strike at Chrysler’s Stellantis Toledo Assembly Complex, on Tuesday, Oct.
The union says that 6,800 members walked out Monday morning at the Sterling Heights, Michigan, Assembly Plant, a huge profit center for the company. The newest strike action comes just three days after union President Shawn Fain reported progress in talks with General Motors and Stellantis but said the companies will have to make better offers. No progress was reported with Ford, last week said it had the best offer of the three.
The union went on strike Sept. 15 at one assembly plant from each company. About 40,000 workers are now on strike against all three automakers.
