At least one industry analyst thinks General Motors’ sprawling assembly plant in Arlington, where more than 5,000 workers produce some of the company’s most...
Arlington workers struck for 40 days in 2019 during the UAW’s last widespread work stoppage.On Wednesday, United Auto Workers President Shawn Fain said offers from the companies aren’t good enough and the union is getting ready to strike. In an online address to members Wednesday, Fain said General Motors, Ford and Stellantis have raised their initial wage offers, but have rejected some of the union’s other demands.
If there’s no deal by the end of Thursday, union officials will not bargain on Friday and instead will join workers on picket lines, he said. If a strike lasts as long as 2019′s 40-day strike against General Motors, experts say the effects could be devastating not only to Arlington where GM’s massive SUV assembly plant is located but also to car dealerships in the state and businesses nationwide supported by the 146,000 workers at the automakers’ plants.
“It’ll go down to the wire, and there won’t be an agreement until the final moment, if there is one at all,” he said.
