GM, Ford chiefs clash with UAW as union expands strikes
DETROIT - The chief executives of GM and Ford blasted United Auto Workers leaders on Friday, and UAW chief Shawn Fain responded in kind, hours after the union escalated the strike that is now in its third week.
“I don’t know why Jim Farley is lying about the state of negotiations," Fain said in response."It could be because he failed to show up for bargaining this week, as he has for most of the past 10 weeks." In addition, the union is trying to conserve a limited strike fund that may be strained by additional strikes at Mack Trucks facilities and Detroit-area casinos that are also represented by the UAW.
Farley said the union's decision to expand walkouts at Ford threatened thousands of supplier jobs. He added many suppliers are"on a knife's edge" because a more than two-week strike at the Michigan factory that builds Bronco SUVs and Ranger trucks.
