If this happens, it’s a game changer — would be the first successful auto organizing drive in a right to work state. If they can organize in Tennessee they can organize anywhere. Scary. Bob Corker, despite being a RINO on other issues, has personally intervened against the UAW but still it looks dicey.

Looks like VW essentially invited the UAW in...

Not sure what the motive could be there.

Healthcare perhaps?

You’re observation is correct- this is interesting that a Union will organize in a right to work state. However, this vote is basically 50/50 which means that if the UAW get Collective Bargaining, 50% of the members will not join the Union. Plus, some people that voted yes, probably won’t join. How will the UAW react to the cost of presenting a plant in which less than 50% aren’t members.

So, what happens in a right to work state to the workers who don’t want to join the union??
