The weekslong United Auto Workers strike intensified Monday when 6,800 employees at Stellantis walked off the job at the automaker's largest plant in Sterling Heights, Michigan.Stellantis' Sterling Heights Assembly Plant produces the RAM 1500 trucks, the company's best-selling vehicles, UAW leaders said Monday. With another 6,800 in the fold, the UAW now has more than 40,000 workers on strike.
