United Auto Workers President Shawn Fain on Friday will invite President Biden to join workers on the picket line against Detroit automakers, as he threatens to widen the strike against the companies, according to one person familiar with the matter, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because the plan had not yet been made public.The invitation from Fain, expected around 10 a.m., comes as Biden is already considering a trip to the picket line under pressure from Michigan Democrats.
Donald Trump, Biden’s likely 2024 presidential rival, has announced he will hold a rally in Detroit next week during the second GOP primary debate. Trump has not said whether he will attempt to join the picket line, but Fain has been clear that the former GOP president would not be welcome there. The strike against Ford, General Motors and Jeep-maker Stellantis is so far targeting just one factory at each company, but could be widened to additional plants today if the UAW decides it is not making progress in negotiations with the Big Three.
