United Auto Workers union President Shawn Fain outlined the plant targets for Thursday night as part of their “Stand Up Strike” strategy if a deal is not reached.
The targets are:UAW President Shawn Fain lists plant targets for possible strike against Big Three Fain explained the “Stand Up Strike” effort on Wednesday afternoon. If a deal does not arrive before the deadline, where they are preparing to strike the Big Three -- General Motors, Stellantis and Ford -- but at a limited number of targeted locations. Based on how the bargaining is going, Fain said they could announce more locals to stand up and strike.
UAW lays out plan for possible Big Three ‘Stand Up Strike’ to ‘keep companies guessing’ Fain had previously said there has been movement in the negotiations with automakers, but that they are"very far apart" when it comes to the UAW's key priorities. The UAW wants double-digit pay increases, the end of the tiered wage system, better healthcare, a 32-hour work week and more.
Ahead of this potential strike, the UAW has $825 million in its strike fund, enough to pay 150,000 UAW members $500 a week for 11 weeks. In most cases, workers on strike are not eligible for unemployment benefits. Members who find other work during the strike won't get strike pay if making more than $500 a week. Strike benefits do cover health care, but do not cover vision, hearing, dental, sick or accident benefits.
