“Our plan is not to strike. Our plan is to bargain an agreement to win economic justice for our membership,” UAW President Shawn Fain told Kentucky Truck Plant workers at a rally in Louisville on Thursday. “…Taking into account our expectations, and taking into account the companies’ continued desire to put a race to the bottom first, we may end up there. So, we have to plan for every scenario.”
The United Auto Workers union will strike auto plants in Missouri, Ohio and Michigan unless the American automakers -- Ford, General Motors and Stellantis -- agree to a last-minute deal.
About a dozen vehicles made by the Detroit car companies are impacted by the UAW strike. Which ones are running low on supply?
