The United Auto Workers Union ( UAW ) members walked out of unionized plants in Ohio , Michigan , and Missouri on Friday morning .
The union wants more pay and fewer hours on the clock.
It also wants employers to do away with tiered wage systems, which pay workers more if they’ve worked for the company longer, even if a new employee is doing just as much or more than his older counterpart.
By Monday morning , 12,700 UAW workers were still on strike.
The UAW chose to withhold its traditional endorsement of Biden ’s 2024 presidential campaign.
Biden said he is the most “pro-union President leading the most pro-union administration in American history” But the UAW president said it was time for politicians to “pick a side” for the working class.
