WASHINGTON, United States -- The United Auto Workers chief warned Sunday that a historic strike at the top three car manufacturers will expand if the companies do not raise their wage offers in ongoing negotiations.
Stellantis, one of the three, had offered its workers what it called a"highly competitive" wage increase of 21 percent over four years, but UAW President Shawn Fain called that"definitely a no-go."
A UAW source confirmed that the union held talks with General Motors on Sunday, the third day of the strike, but offered no further details. Only 12,700 of the union's 150,000 workers are currently on strike, but Fain's comments pointed to the possibility of a much broader action, with echoes throughout the economy.Republicans on Sunday tried to tie the strike to voters' concerns on inflation and the Biden administration's overall economic leadership.
Pence, who is seeking the Republican presidential nomination in the 2024 election, blamed Biden's stewardship for"the worst inflation in 40 years" and added that the administration's electric vehicles push would mainly benefit battery-makers in China.
