随着通用汽车“低头”，规模史无前例的美国车企三巨头工人罢工落下帷幕。

当地时间10月30日，美国汽车工人联合会(UAW)和通用汽车达成临时合同协议，包括在未来四年合同期限内给员工提供25%的加薪，取消多个工资等级，将Ultium Cells和GM Subsystems LLC两个电池工厂的员工纳入临时协议中。通用汽车的员工在协议批准期间将重返工作岗位。

这一临时协议的达成，结束了这场长达6周的汽车工人罢工。外媒称，对美国汽车工人联合会来说，这场针对底特律三大汽车生产商的罢工行动可以用一次胜利来形容。

美国总统拜登在最新的演讲中表示，福特、通用汽车和Stellantis与美国汽车工人联合会(UAW)达成了历史性的协议；这些协议确保三大汽车巨头仍能够在质量和创新方面处于领先地位；今天的历史性协议是经济领域的又一大好消息。

当地时间9月15日凌晨，UAW正式对美国汽车三巨头——通用、福特、标致雪铁龙母公司Stellantis发起罢工。起因是美国汽车工人与这三家汽车制造商的合同已于9月14号到期，工会要求汽车公司提高薪资、养老金、医疗、失业等保障以应对美国通胀高企带来的生活成本危机，每周工作四天等，但双方未能在合同到期前达成一致。

-Before I begin, I want to explain why I was delayed a few minutes.

I have just spoken with President Fain of the United Auto Workers, and let me say a few words about the UAW and the Big Three automakers -- Ford, General Motors, and Stellantis.

They have reached an historic agreement and a hard-fought agreement that was really battled for a while, but it was all done in good faith.

And these record agreements reward autoworkers who gave up much to keep the industry working and going during the financial crisis more than a decade ago.

These agreements ensure the iconic Big Three can still lead the world in quality and innovation.

Due to the commitment and solidarity of the UAW workers willing to exercise their right, their right to collectively bargain, they've won a record contract with over a 30% increase in wages, greater retirement security, and more paid leave, and a commitment by the big Three to create more full-time middle class jobs and invest tens of billions more dollars in plants and factories building automobiles' future here in America.

I applaud the UAW and the leaders of the automobile companies for agreeing that all the workers on strike and all those who were walking the picket lines on behalf of the UAW, brothers and sisters, can go back to work immediately, even before the vote is taken.

Ultimately, the final word on this contract will be for the UAW memberships themselves in the days and coming weeks as they vote.

But here's what I know and what I shared with the United Auto Workers that I met in the picket line.

I've always believed that the middle class built America and that unions built the middle class.

And that's especially the case for United Auto Workers, who built the iconic automobile industry.

For too long, in my view, the economy hasn't worked for working people and for middle class folks, because when they do well, by the way, everybody does well.

That's why I came to office determined to build an economy, to build from the middle out and the bottom up instead of the top down.

It's a critical piece of worker power, and it's showing how collective bargaining works by providing workers a seat at the table to honor their contributions to their employer's success by securing pay and benefits they can raise a family on and retire with dignity and respect.

It's showing how collective bargaining works for companies, how a strong relationship between workers and management can mean record profits leading to record contracts.

We're also seeing across the board, for the UAW workers, we're seeing this everywhere -- rail workers, port workers, teamsters, writers, health workers, and workers on other industries organizing by collective bargaining.

Folks, look, today's historic agreement is yet another piece of good economic news showing something I've always believed.

Worker power.

Worker power is critical to building an economy from the middle out and the bottom up, and so is economic growth.
