Thread: Volkswagen Chattanooga Workers Vote 712 to 626 Against UAW Representation

UAW's critical gambit to organize foreign plant failsIn what was seen as a critical beachhead for the United Auto Workers in its efforts to organize foreign-brand plants in the American South, the labor organization saw its latest hopes dashed by a vote 712 to 626 against UAW representation by the workers at Volkswagen's Chattanooga plant. The facility currently builds the Passat midsize sedan, and is reportedly the leading location to produce the future three-row crossover based on the CrossBlue concept.
