A United Auto Workers official who was quoted in a letter to members as saying that a U.S. official was “in the room” during labor contract negotiations with General Motors Co. called the report a “misprint.”
The editor of a newsletter to members of UAW Local 598 erroneously wrote that a representative of the U.S., GM’s largest shareholder, was observing the talks, said Dana Rouse, the local’s shop committee chairman and a member of the Detroit-based union’s national bargaining team with the automaker.
