Workers at General Motors, Ford, and Stellantis are set to walkout this week if their employers fail to meet their demands for big pay raises.

Sam Fenwick discusses this and more of the business news from around with Andy Uhler, journalist and fellow of the University of Texas Energy Institute in Austin, and Jyoti Malhotra, is Editor, National & Strategic Affairs at The Print India.
