[United States] Protests: Peaceful protest

Summary

Single-source ACLED detection — awaiting independent verification. UAW Local 291 members and workers reportedly picketed at a Cummins facility in Oshkosh, Wisconsin on April 4, 2025, demanding new contracts. The protest was classified as peaceful with low severity.

Supply chain impact

No commodities or chokepoints are directly mapped to this event; second-order effects depend on how the situation escalates and whether work stoppages occur at the facility.

Watch points

• Monitor for additional UAW locals joining the action or expansion to other Cummins facilities
• Track whether picketing escalates to work stoppages or production disruptions
• Watch for broader UAW contract negotiation developments that could affect multiple manufacturing sites
