Consider This from NPR The Promise and the Limits of the UAW Deals
Nov 14, 2023
The UAW secured significant victories in deals with Big 3 car companies, but some workers are focused on what the contracts are missing. The contracts include big pay raises and retirement contributions, but some workers express concerns about trustworthiness and missing retiree health benefits. The podcast also discusses the impact of the achievements on workers and the middle class, the details of the new contract, the UAW's efforts to expand and unionize workers at Tesla, and recent raises by non-unionized companies.
