The United Auto Workers (UAW) strike against Ford, General Motors, and Stellantis has come to an end after six weeks. UAW President Shawn Fain's decision to target all three automakers simultaneously appears to have paid off for workers. The strikes resulted in historic contract wins for the UAW, including protection for autoworkers affected by the shift to electric vehicles. Fain is now confident in taking on Tesla and its anti-union CEO Elon Musk. The strikes have had a negative impact on small businesses in Hollywood, with some saying they hurt worse than COVID. The strikes also registered a hit to the jobs report, weighing on labor growth. The UAW's victories include nearly $2 billion in new investment for future electric vehicle production. UAW President Fain plans to use the longer contract to win over auto workers who have resisted UAW organizing efforts for years.
