Ron Gettelfinger, the United Auto Workers’ (UAW) president during the recent tumult, is moving on from his post, and has thrown his support behind Bob King. King is currently a vice president in the union and manages the relationship with Ford. <\/p>\n

While the outlook is positive for King’s nomination, he’s going to have some reconciliation to do. In the last go-round with Ford, King asked his membership to agree to concessions that took strikes off the table, which the UAW’s rank and file promptly denied. Despite the contention, King has been thought of as Ron Gettelfinger’s replacement for some time, and the union hopes King will be a tougher customer in the throes of negotiation. <\/p>\n
