The United Auto Workers union is negotiating new four-year contracts with Ford, GM, and Stellantis.
UAW President Shawn Fain isn't ruling out a strike, potentially at more than one company.
The White House has weighed in as the automotive industry's labor union, the United Auto Workers, is gearing up for a fight with Detroit's Big Three car companies this summer and fall.
The average labor costs for the Detroit Three heading into contract talks four years ago hovered between $55 and $60 per hour.
Correction: July 27, 2023 — An earlier version of this story incorrectly said workers at GM's Ultium plant were not represented by a Union.
