Scaling the production of EVs and selling them is hard for the the big three. Currently, increasing the cost of labor will make it even harder. With the current economic environment, it doesn't seem to make sense to get pay raises now when the automakers are trying to transition to EV production. Seeing how EVs are trending, it's like a double whammy trying to sell an unprofitable EV that takes away the sale of a profitable ICE vehicle. Plus you have Chinese automakers knocking at the backdoor with much cheaper labor costs.
