Hundreds of individuals, including late-shift auto workers and their allies, congregated at a Ford Motor Company (NYSE:F) assembly facility in Wayne, Michigan, as the United Auto Workers (UAW) union members initiated their historic walkout.
According to Reuters, the United Auto Workers (UAW) union members walked off the job to begin what is considered the first-ever simultaneous strikes against the “Detroit Three” automakers, including General Motors (NYSE:GM) and Stellantis (NYSE:STLA), Chrysler’s parent company.
Mike Lester, an employee at an automotive supplier, expressed, “This is what union looks like.”
“It’s organized. We’re (here) to make sure … Ford pays their fair share to their employees.”
