Later this week, as many as 150,000 U.S. autoworkers may walk out
in a historic strike against the three Detroit automakers,
General Motors, Ford and Stellantis. The United Auto Workers
union and the Big Three are still far apart in talks, and have
only two days left to negotiate a new labor contract before the
deadline.

Neal Boudette, who covers the auto industry for The New York
Times, walks us through a tangled, decades-long dynamic and
explains why a walkout looks increasingly likely.

Guest: Neal E. Boudette, an auto industry correspondent for The
New York Times.

Background reading:

Detroit’s Big Three.

The United Auto Workers has said it is prepared to strike at
General Motors, Ford and Stellantis if a deal is not reached
before current contracts end.
