I believe they’re asking for 40% over the life of the contract. I for one hope they get it. As I do not believe the price of cars is directly attributed to their pay. Mostly poor management and greed.
Their top pay is slightly over $32 an hour. We are well above that at UPS.

Striking auto workers want a 40% pay increase—the same rate their CEOs' pay grew in recent years

Autoworker pay at "The Big Three" works on a tiered system, where more recent hires start at lower rates of pay than more tenured workers.

40% raise plus reduction to 32 hrs a week for same pay as 40 means another 20%...total 60 % .....its a stretch......the constant barking about what the ceo's make is humorous considering the aggregate amount compared with the total compensation of the union members........I do believe that the ceo's should be capped at 20 times what the average union person.....same thing with baseball and the other sports players.......it's interesting that the federal government owns 25% of gm and the uaw own s 15 %

I remember a lot of paint booths, where no one wore respirators of any kind.

Also remember employers being pissed they had to pay for respirators, venting systems... they *itched about it for years.

Asking for a 32 hour work week was a great way to lose support from the public.

Trump paid $20,000 to rent plant for fake union auto worker event: filing

Perhaps in the hope of competing with some of the acclaim President Joe Biden received for showing solidarity with striking UAW members, Donald Trump staged a rally with fake auto worker union members, only to be exposed when local reporters talked to attendees who were not union members or not...

news.yahoo.com

This guy. This guy has no ing shame.

Trump spent $20,000 (hope they were paid up front) to rent out a non-union auto parts plant to stage a pro-union rally. Welp, turns out that many holding signs in the crowd were neither union laborers or even auto workers at all.

LOL

Trump voters: do you have no shame?
