UAW strike update: Union decides not to expand picket line actions

The United Auto Workers (UAW) union will not be expanding its picket lines against Big Three automakers Ford (F), General Motors (GM), and Stellantis (STLA) this week as negotiations continue. UAW President Shawn Fain said “they want uncertainty and what we have is our solidarity” in his weekly strike update on Facebook Live.
Autolist Editor-in-Chief David Undercoffler examines the UAW’s expectations for securing a new labor contract, hinting at the role EVs may be playing in negotiations.
“I think [Fain’s tactics are] working, I think it’s speaking to sort of the larger frustration UAW members have felt both with… the gains they’ve gotten and not gotten over the past 15 years,” Undercoffler tells Yahoo Finance. “You’ve got to remember, one thing Shawn Fain was elected on a very slim margin, right? There’s a lot of pressure on him to get a deal across the finish line.”
