New York CNN —Members of the United Auto Workers union are back on the job at General Motors, Ford and Stellantis. They can’t go on strike in sympathy with another union’s strike, and they can’t wage a strike over political issues, such as a change in government policy. The Teamsters and the UAW also both have members now on strike against a group of casinos in Detroit. The significance of May 1The date Fain sees for this collective, coordinated strike is May 1, 2028, or May Day, which is also International Workers Day. That is celebrated as a Labor Day in many other countries, but rarely in the United States, which is where its historical roots are.
