UAW President Shawn Fain announced 38 new sites across the country that will be struck at noon Friday as an expansion against the union’s one-week-old action against Detroit Three automakers. Fain said the union has made good progress with Ford Motor Co. this week, but General Motors and Stellantis “will need some pushing.”

For that reason, he said, “At noon eastern time today all parts distribution centers at GM and Stellantis will be on strike. We will be everywhere from California to Massachusetts and we will keep going and keep expanding the Stand Up Strike as necessary.”
