The United Auto Workers union appears to be edging closer to a tentative contract agreement with Ford.
The Texas walkout came one day after workers shut down Stellantis’ Ram Truck plant in Michigan.
The union said it was striking the company’s pickup plant because it had the “worst proposal” on the table of the “Big Three" automakers.

The union said it launched the surprise strike after failing to make progress in negotiations with the iconic automaker.
