UAW President's Next Move: Aiming for Progress and Power

The president of the United Auto Workers (UAW) union, Shawn Fain, will provide an update on negotiations with Detroit's Big Three automakers after unexpectedly adding a major facility to their ongoing auto strike. The UAW is warning of "further action if needed" during the bargaining update, as part of their new strike strategy targeting valuable automotive facilities to create leverage. The union aims to expedite talks and push for demands including a significant wage hike, pension restoration, and an end to wage tiers. The strike, now in its fourth week, has affected 44 facilities and could potentially expand further.
