Autoworkers made concessions in 2008 to save the auto industry and new contracts have not been reinstated to help them recover from those cuts and keep up with the economic demands. Meanwhile, auto company profits at Ford, General Motors, and Stellantis have skyrocketed 92 percent over the last 10 years, totaling $250 billion. In 2023 alone, they are expected to profit more than $32 billion. Despite their efforts, worker pay has only gone up 6 percent over the last 10 years.
