Independent federal monitor launches inquiry into United Auto Workers chief Shawn Fain
Shawn Fain, the president of United Auto Workers, is under investigation by an independent federal monitor over allegations of retaliation against other union leaders, according to a court filing on Monday.
Neil Barofsky, the union’s monitor, opened an investigation in February to review allegations, including one from the UAW secretary-treasurer, Margaret Mock, saying she had faced retaliation for her refusal or reluctance to authorize certain expenditures for Fain’s office, according to the filing. Barofsky also opened a probe into Mock’s actions.
