Quick Glance: UAW Secures Historic Victory as Volkswagen Workers in Tennessee Vote for Union Representation
- Volkswagen workers in Chattanooga, Tennessee, made history by voting to join the United Auto Workers, marking the first auto factory in the South since the 1940s to unionize.
- Nearly three-quarters of 3,613 workers voted yes in a three-day election with high turnout, granting the union a significant first win in its efforts to organize factories of a dozen automakers in the South.
- The organizing effort concludes a strong year for the U.S. labor movement, obtaining record wage increases across various industries through strikes and tough negotiations.
- The UAW, led by President Shawn Fain, achieved notable successes in negotiations with Detroit automakers last fall, securing substantial raises and benefits through a contentious strike.

New EPA rule says 200 US chemical plants must reduce toxic emissions that are likely to cause cancer
apnews.com/article/epa-chemical-pollution-cancer-environmental-justice-louisiana-3207b752c9e0e9d6e3e7e715be92e8eb
Quick Glance: New EPA Rule Mandates 218 US Chemical Plants to Reduce Toxic Emissions
- A new rule from the Environmental Protection Agency will require over 200 chemical plants nationwide to reduce toxic emissions likely to cause cancer. This rule advances President Joe Biden's commitment to environmental justice by providing crucial health protections for communities burdened by industrial pollution from ethylene oxide, chloroprene, and other dangerous chemicals.
- The rule will significantly decrease emissions of chloroprene and other pollutants, impacting the Denka Performance Elastomer facility in LaPlace, Louisiana, the largest source of chloroprene emissions in the country. Democratic Representative Troy Carter hailed the new rule as "a monumental step" to safeguard public health and the environment.
- The EPA will cut over 6,200 tons of toxic air pollutants annually and implement fenceline monitoring to address health risks in surrounding communities, promoting environmental justice in Louisiana and other states. Environmental activists see the rule as a victory for environmental justice, representing a significant step towards clean air and safe communities.
- Focusing on toxic emissions, the rule provides protection for communities that have suffered from underregulated emissions. The introduction of fenceline monitoring for six toxic air pollutants is crucial for ensuring accountability and transparency. This rule marks a significant stride towards a more just and equitable environmental protection framework.
