Workers at a Volkswagen plant in Chattanooga , Tennessee, became the first Southern autoworkers not employed by one of the Big Three car manufacturers to win a union Friday night when they voted to join the United Auto Workers by a 'landslide' majority. This is the first major victory for the UAW after it launched the biggest organizing drive in modern U.S. history on the heels of its 'stand up strike' that secured historic contracts with the Big Three in fall 2023.
This incredible victory for labor will transform Tennessee and the South!' Other national labor leaders and progressive politicians also congratulated the Chattanooga workers. Lee Saunders, president of the American Federation of State, County, and Municipal Employees, said the win 'shows what we already know—workers in every part of this country want the freedom to join a union, and when we stand together, we have tremendous power.
