Volkswagen union vote in Tennessee to test UAW's power after victories in Detroit
Publishing timestamp: 2024-04-16 08:02:11
Summary
Volkswagen workers in Chattanooga, Tennessee, are voting on whether to organize with the United Auto Workers union. A victory would be a major win for UAW outside of the Big Three automakers in Detroit, while a loss would be a setback for the union. The vote is seen as the union's best chance at organizing the VW plant following successful contract wins with Detroit companies.
