UAW Could Expand Strike Against Automakers as Contract Talks Stall in 5th Week

UAW President Shawn Fain said the union is entering a "new phase" in its fight against automakers.

Fain indicated the UAW could expand the strike at any time against GM, Ford, and Stellantis.

The UAW strike is now in its 5th week, with no agreement reached yet on a new contract.

Key sticking points remain over pay increases, electric vehicle jobs, and retirement benefits.

Ford said it has reached its limit economically on what it can offer the UAW.
