UAW Strike: Workers Explain, Auto Suppliers Prepare

More than 12,000 UAW workers are on strike at the Big Three automakers in Michigan, Ohio, and Missouri, demanding higher wages and an end to the tiered employment system. The union is seeking 36 percent wage increases over four years, citing stagnant wages and the large compensation of CEOs. Striking workers express concerns about supporting their families and their futures, with some taking on side jobs to make ends meet. The strike highlights the ongoing struggle for fair compensation and job security in the auto industry.
