«Breaking with precedent, where just one of the trio of American legacy makers would be “targeted” for a #strike, the UAW launched simultaneous strikes against all three, then shrewdly conserved strike funds by closing individual plants rather than all at once. The 46-day “Stand Up Strike,” ... ended in a resounding victory for the UAW.»
