Deep dives
Potential Strike by United Auto Workers
The United Auto Workers (UAW) may go on strike if they fail to reach a deal with the big three automakers - GM, Ford, and Stellantis. The UAW has previously chosen one strike target, but this time they're warning of a potential strike at all three companies simultaneously.
