The US Auto Workers Union Strike
The podcast discusses the ongoing strike by the United Auto Workers Union in the United States, with 18,000 members currently on strike. The strike was triggered by the exploration of the four-year contracts previously signed with major automakers. The Union is demanding a 46% pay increase and a four-day workweek with overtime pay beyond 32 hours. The strike has not yet resulted in a tentative agreement, and Union leaders are threatening to expand the strike to more factories across the country.
