“Stellantis has declared war on the American working class,” says UAW boss as major strike looms

The union is planning strike authorization votes at local chapters to pressure Stellantis into honoring investment commitments from a previous agreement. The union president, Shawn Fain, accused Stellantis of abandoning workers and violating agreements. Stellantis denies these claims and urges for productive dialogue. There is internal drama within the UAW, with accusations of misconduct on both sides. Stellantis is facing challenges with sales and market share, leading to layoffs and outsourcing. The company’s actions have sparked grievances and potential strikes from the union.
