UAW Launches Ambitious Drive to Organize Major Automakers in Unprecedented Campaign

The United Auto Workers (UAW) is launching an unprecedented public organizing campaign to unionize non-union automakers in the United States. Workers at over a dozen non-union automakers have announced simultaneous campaigns to join the UAW, with the organizing drive expected to cover nearly 150,000 autoworkers across thirteen automakers. The UAW's strategy involves workers signing union cards, holding public rallies, and demanding recognition from the companies. The union aims to secure better wages, benefits, and job security for non-union autoworkers, following the successful labor contracts recently negotiated with the Detroit Three car companies.
