The United Auto Workers union said Friday it will not expand its strikes against Detroits three automakers after General Motors made a breakthrough concession on unionizing electric vehicle battery plants.

The announcement of the pause in adding factories to the strikes came minutes after GM agreed to bring workers at battery factories into the UAWs national contract, essentially assuring they will represented by the union.

We have had a major breakthrough that has not only dramatically changed negotiations, but is going to change the future of our union and the future of our industry, union President Shawn Fain told workers Friday in a video appearance.

Fain, wearing a T-shirt that said Eat the Rich in bold letters to back his contention that its time for the working class to make gains over billionaires, said the UAW is wining at GM and expects to do the same at Ford and Stellantis.

If you have to pick between the workers and management, there is always an obvious correct answer.
