Deep dives
Auto-worker's strike at three car factories
The United Auto Workers Union (UAW) made history by striking simultaneously at three car factories owned by GM, Ford, and Stellantis. The union is demanding a 36% pay increase over four years, reinstatement of benefits given up during the Great Recession, and other new benefits. The auto makers claim they can't afford it, but the UAW argues their billion-dollar profits say otherwise, and they are willing to support the transition to electric vehicles as long as labor is not left behind.
