UAW drops unfair labor practice charges against GM, Stellantis

The United Auto Workers dropped unfair labor practice charges against General Motors and Chrysler-parent Stellantis on Friday.

The union had filed the charges on Aug. 31 with the National Labor Relations Board charging the automakers had refused to bargain in good faith, which both companies strongly denied. The UAW on Sept. 15 launched the first-ever simultaneous strike against the Detroit Three automakers and now has targeted 43 facilities covering about 25,000 out of about 150,000 hourly auto workers. The companies and UAW have exchanged numerous contract offers over the last month.
