DETROIT, MI —The United Auto Workers strike against General Motors may continue longer than expected. On Sunday, the union sent a note to members saying that talks with GM have taken “a turn for the worse.”

The union says that GM rejected their latest proposal.
“You didn’t even have a professional courtesy to explain why you could not accept or why you rejected our package proposal for each item we addressed,” UA VP Terry Dittes wrote to his counterpart at GM on Sunday.
“We expect the Company to respond and discuss the package proposal we presented yesterday. The law and basic decency require no less.”
Dittes says that the company passed along what they called a new proposal on Sunday morning. He told members GM’s offer “did nothing to advance a whole host of issues that are important to you and your families.”
GM maintains that they are negotiating “in good faith” and are committed to “discussions around the clock to reach a resolution.”
Close to 50,000 workers walked off the job on Sept. 16.
