News Picture Story - 3rd, “UAW Strike”The United Auto Workers went on strike September 15, 2023, when the union was unable to reach a deal with the three automakers. It was the first trilateral strike against the three automakers in the union's history. The hardline stance taken by the newly elected UAW president Shawn Fain contributed to the UAW's decision to strike. Jeep workers at the Toledo Plant walked the picket line for 46 days.
