The deadline the union has set for negotiations with three automakers -- General Motors, Ford and Stellantis -- is midnight eastern on Thursday. About 150,000 members work at the three companies. Some union members have been struggling as executives "make out like bandits," Fain said in an earlier statement. "The Big Three have been breaking the bank while we have been breaking our backs."
