pbs.org/newshour/nation/tennessee-volkswagen-workers-vote-on-union-membership-in-key-test-of-uaws-plan-to-expand
Quick Glance: Historic Vote at Volkswagen Plant in Tennessee
- This week, 4,300 hourly workers at a Volkswagen plant in Chattanooga, Tennessee, are voting on whether to join the United Auto Workers union.
- The significance of this vote lies in the potential shift in union dynamics in the South, with the UAW launching a strong campaign to penetrate non-union auto factories in the region.
- The outcome of this vote could either significantly strengthen or hinder the union, with the UAW needing a majority of yes votes to win.
- Southern politicians warn of job losses if unionization occurs in the region, while Volkswagen emphasizes respecting employees' right to choose and its substantial investments in the plant.
