Looks like today at noon is the deadline.

“ UAW President Shawn Fain has warned that more of the union's 146,000 members who work at the Detroit Three will join them if new deals are not reached before noon EDT (1600 GMT) on Friday

Am I the only one who sees "Shawn Fain" and immediately thinks about Sinn Féin and The Troubles?
