The United Auto Workers union plans to expand its strike against Detroit’s legacy automakers on Friday if there isn’t major progress in negotiations.

The announcement would be made Sept. 29 at 10 a.m. Detroit time in a Facebook Live event hosted by UAW President Shawn Fain, the union said. The deadline for a strike expansion would be noon that day.
