Fain, who gained prominence during the 2023 UAW strike, hit out at TARP’s former special inspector general, Neil Barofsky, in a statement.

A report found that Shawn Fain retaliated against a union official, Rich Boyer, after Boyer pushed back against some of Fain's actions.

The new probe concerns claims that Fain sought a financial bonus for his fiancée and pushed for a worker’s compensation claim for her sister.
