McCarthy addresses pending shutdown
WASHINGTON (AP) ? With House Speaker Kevin McCarthy?s latest funding plan in ruins and lawmakers leaving town for the weekend, there?s no endgame in sight as hard-right Republicans push dangerously closer to a disruptive federal shutdown. The White House will tell federal agencies on Friday to prepare for a shutdown, according to an official with the Office of Management and Budget who insisted on anonymity to discuss the upcoming instructions. That?s standard seven days out from a federal disruption. The Republican McCarthy has repeatedly tried to appease his hard-right flank by agreeing to the steep spending cuts they are demanding to keep government open. But cheered on by Donald Trump, the Republican front-runner for president in 2024, the conservatives have all but seized control in dramatic fashion.

American auto worker strike expands
The United Auto Workers union expanded its strike against major carmakers Friday, walking out of all 38 parts-distribution centers operated by General Motors and Jeep and Ram owner Stellantis in 20 states but sparing Ford from further shutdowns. President Joe Biden said on X, formerly known as Twitter, that he will visit Michigan on Tuesday ?to join the picket line and stand in solidarity with the men and women of UAW as they fight for a fair share of the value they helped create.? Ford avoided additional strikes because the company has met some of the union?s demands during negotiations over the past week, UAW President Shawn Fain said during an online presentation to union members.

American auto strike could expand Friday
DETROIT (AP) ? Nearly one in 10 of America?s unionized auto workers went on strike Friday to pressure Detroit?s three automakers into raising wages in an era of big profits and as the industry begins a costly transition from gas guzzlers to electric vehicles. By striking simultaneously at General Motors, Ford and Chrysler owner Stellantis for the first time in its history, the United Auto Workers union is trying to inflict a new kind of pain on the companies and claw back some pay and benefits workers gave up in recent decades. The strikes are limited for now to three assembly plants: a GM factory in Wentzville, Missouri, a Ford plant in Wayne, Michigan, near Detroit, and a Jeep plant run by Stellantis in Toledo, Ohio. The workers received support from President Joe Biden, who dispatched aides to Detroit to help resolve the impasse and said the Big 3 automakers should share their ?record profits.?
