The United Auto Workers (UAW) union has announced that it is expanding its current strike against General Motors to include the Ford Kentucky Truck Plant in Louisville. This is a major facility for Ford, and it is home to the production of large trucks like the Ford F-Series Super Duty. The UAW says that the strike will involve thousands of workers and that there will be picketing outside of the Ford facility. The UAW has been on strike since late September, and the strike officially expanded to include Ford workers on October 22. The union is seeking changes to job security, wages, and health care, among other demands. The strike continues until an agreement is reached between UAW members and the Ford Motor Company.
