Workers at the Volkswagen plant in Chattanooga, Tennessee are attempting to unionize. In 2014, workers attempted to unionize and were stopped by GOP officials. Additionally, the bargaining unit was limited to hourly employees. The south is predominantly anti-union, aside from the Chattanooga plant the UAW has not been able to organize a foreign-owned assembly plant. This time around, all employees have been given a vote and it appears that a union win may be possible.
