GM Executive Criticizes UAW Leadership Over Contract Negotiations

GM executive Mark Reuss criticizes UAW leadership for "flow of misinformation" during ongoing contract negotiations.
Reuss says GM's "record" contract offer included 20% pay raises, bonuses, and other improved benefits.
UAW demands like 40% pay hikes and 32-hour workweek are "untenable," Reuss says.
UAW has not responded to Reuss' op-ed as of Wednesday morning.
Strikes continue at GM, Ford, and Stellantis plants, with potential to expand on Friday without progress.
