United Auto Workers president Shawn Fain said the union is rejecting a 21% pay increase offered by one of the Big Three automakers.
UAW president Shawn Fain on"Face the Nation," 9/17/2023"It's definitely a no-go," Fain said about the 21% pay hike offered."We've made that very clear to the companies.
"Our wages went backwards," he said."Our benefits have went backwards. The majority of our members have zero retirement security now. Brennan asked Fain how he makes the case that automakers need to invest more in union workers when the labor costs of competitors who don't use union labor, such as Tesla and Toyota, are significantly lower.
President Biden, who has referred to himself the most pro-union president in recent history, weighed in on the strike on Friday.
