The auto industry strike in the US has spread to two other factories

American Union United Automobile Workers (UAW) This Friday, the auto industry strikes were extended to two other vehicle assembly plants of Ford and General Motors (GM) due to the lack of progress in negotiations for a new collective agreement.
Union President Shawn Fain announced the strike extension in a Facebook Live message to members.
Assembly plants in Chicago (Ford) and Lansing Delta Township (GM) employ about 7,000 people. In addition to these two jobs, about 25,000 people are now on strike at GM, Ford and Stellantis, the three major automakers in the United States.
“Unfortunately, despite our willingness to negotiate, Ford and GM They refuse to make any substantive progress in the negotiations. For this reason, starting today, we will extend the strike to those two companies,” said the UAW president.
Fain justified the union’s decision not to include Stellantis in the latest round of strikes because the company presented this morning labor union an offer that represents “significant progress” in aid to offset cost-of-living increases and in workers’ right to strike.
The union leader stressed that the extension of the strike does not mean that negotiations with the three companies have ended and added: “I very much hope that we can reach an agreement that reflects the incredible sacrifices and contributions that our members have made over the last decade.” “.
Fain concluded by saying that the UAW’s unusual strategy of calling a progressive strike at all three companies simultaneously, the first time the union has done so in its entire history, is “working.”
The strike began on September 15 in three assembly plants General Motors (GM), Ford and Stellantis, which employ a total of 13,500 people. A week later, the UAW expanded the strike to 38 GM and Stellantis jobs.
The strike is also affecting thousands of workers at companies that supply components to the three major manufacturers in the United States, who have had to shut down their operations.
