Auto workers chief, prosecutor to discuss reforming union

Load Error Matthew Schneider, the U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Michigan, has floated the idea of the government taking control of the union and has pushed for letting each member vote on its leadership. Some officials used union dues for golf, lodging and fancy meals, while others tapped cash from a Fiat Chrysler-UAW training center with approval from an FCA executive. “Both men seek to work together to restore the trust and confidence of the UAW's membership in the union's ability to represent them,” the statement said.
