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.

Construction already is underway on the companies’ first joint venture factory in Kokomo, which is scheduled to open early in 2025.

The state's workers are still being affected as UAW strikes at facilities in other states lead to reduced production and temporary layoffs across the auto supply chain.

Stellantis is set to temporary layoff 300 Kokomo workers.
