Fain plans to use record contracts recently won with GM, Ford and Stellantis to assist in the union’s embattled organizing efforts elsewhere.
UAW President Shawn Fain wants to expand the union's battle from the Detroit automakers to Tesla, Toyota and other non-unionized automakers in the U.S.
"We've created the threat of a good example, and now we're going to build on it," Fain said Thursday night when discussing."We just went on strike like we've never been on strike before and won a historic contract as a result. Now we're going to organize like we've never organized before." The union has already received significant interest from non-union automakers in light of the tentative agreements, Fain said. And last month, he rejected comments from Ford Chair Bill Ford arguing the company and union should be working together to battle non-American automakers.
"Toyota isn't giving out raises out of the goodness of their heart," Fain said."They could have just as easily raised wages a month ago or a year ago. They did it now because the company knows we're coming for 'em."
