Amazon that plans to make the largest capital investment deal in Indiana history to build a massive data center campus west of South Bend.

Full details of the agreement haven’t been shared publicly yet but it is expected to be very similar to the agreements struck with Ford and Chrysler-parent Stellantis last week.

The United Auto Workers union is ending its 44-day strike at Chrysler-parent Stellantis after reaching a tentative agreement that union leaders say “got every penny possible out of this company."

The union demonstrated this new “phase” of the strike strategy last week by suddenly calling workers to strike at a major Ford plant in Louisville, Kentucky.

Electric vehicle parts are often less complex than traditional gasoline-fueled vehicles. Union leaders worry jobs will be lost in the transition.

For the third week in a row, no Ford, General Motors or Stellantis facilities in Indiana were called to join the picket lines.

The United Auto Workers union contracts at General Motors, Ford and Stellantis expired Thursday night without a tentative agreement on a new contract in sight. Some UAW workers are striking, but not in Indiana.

The United Auto Workers plans to bring more plants into the strike the longer it goes, ramping up pressure on GM, Stellantis and Ford. That means the Bedford union could be called to walk out at any time.

UAW members in Indiana are ready to take to the picket lines, but this possible strike’s strategy is unusual.

If General Motors, Stellantis and Ford don’t offer contracts that satisfy enough United Auto Workers union demands by Sept. 14, thousands of workers in Indiana and nationally will walk off the job.
