The United Auto Workers (UAW) strike is impacting factories at General Motors, Ford, and Stellantis (Chrysler, Jeep, etc.) with 146 thousand workers being authorized to strike. The union is seeking 40% pay increases and four-day workweeks among other demands. If a full strike occurred, it would be similar in size to the 1998 UAW/GM strike that lasted nearly two months when just over 152 thousand workers went on strike.
