Nathan Bomey at Axios reports that according to new estimates, United Auto Workers (UAW)-represented Workers are poised to stomach thousands of dollars in reduced payments because of President Donald Trump's auto tariffs. UAW Workers get annual profit-sharing checks based on the North American profits of their employers. That's particularly problematic because Trump's tariffs are expected to hit North American profits hard. The average hourly UAW-represented Worker for General Motors, Ford and Stellantis will get a profit-sharing check reduction of anywhere from $1,000 to more than $5,000, according to Anderson Economic Group. "For some Automakers, the effects of a prolonged tariff war could lead to operating losses that cause payouts to go to zero," the Michigan-based firm estimates in a new report.
