In a historic victory, Volkswagen workers have voted by 96 percent to ratify their first union contract. The deal locks in 20 percent wage increases, healthcare cost reductions, job security guarantees, an enforceable grievance procedure, and much more.

It was a pleasure to meet with members of @uawregion6.bsky.social last week to discuss the need for Congress to support scientists and workers. As an original co-sponsor of the PRO Act, I believe in the right to organize and bargain for higher wages, better benefits, and safer workplaces.
After making history as the first Southern autoworkers outside the Big Three to join the UAW, the 3,200 workers at VW Chattanooga have won a tentative agreement that provides 20 percent across-the-board wage increases, affordable health care, real job security, and more.

UAW 4121 president Natalie Wellen in support: at UW we've already seen impact of cuts reducing jobs, less support for students.
"We want to see our state meet this moment with bold ideas to immediately safeguard education and health care, not further cuts"
UAW Statement in Solidarity with the Fight for Justice in Minnesota
🧵 The UAW stands in solidarity with the people of Minnesota, including hundreds of UAW members, who are standing up and fighting back against the federal government’s abuses and attacks on the working class.
Every single worker deserves living wages and a safe work environment, and I will continue to fight alongside my sisters and brothers at the @uawregion6.bsky.social for just that. Thank you again for putting your trust in me.
“If you have an opportunity to stand up and you can do it with a greater degree of safety than a lot of your colleagues do or can, then you have an obligation to. Everyone has an obligation to do what they can.”

You heard President Fain: Let’s sprint through the tape. #thisisyourcity
UAW 4121 is, imo, the most underestimated political organization in the city. They have decades of institutional experience organizing student workers for big wins against the UW, which is arguably more powerful than city hall. Wilson’s campaign is the first to really capture that energy, imo.
UAW members in Seattle: TODAY is your last chance to vote for @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social for Seattle Mayor. Return your ballot to a drop box by 8 pm! 🗳️
I am so proud to be in the fight with the mighty @uaw.org. Thank you to @uaw4121.bsky.social, @uawregion6.bsky.social, and, in particular, the many, many rank and file members who have knocked doors and contributed to other aspects of our campaign for an affordable Seattle.
Katie Wilson “has the exact kind of experience we need in a mayor — someone who understands coalition building, the needs of working people, and cares deeply about equity at work and fighting climate change.” www.dailyuw.com/article/why-... @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social @uaw4121.bsky.social

Thank you SCORE and UAW 4121 for organizing today’s mega canvas. We have two days left to win an affordable Seattle — get your ballot in and join a canvas shift at the link in our bio! #thisisyourcity
Conflict between the climate and labor movements has weakened what otherwise could be a potent force against the fossil fuel industry. A new report from @uawregion6.bsky.social lays out a green industrial proposal to bridge that divide

"The Trump administration's use of surveillance to track and intimidate UAW members is a direct assault on the First Amendment—and an attack on every working person in this country," said @uaw.org President Shawn Fain. www.eff.org/press/releas...

🧵 A coalition of labor unions, health care providers, schools, and religious organizations filed suit today to stop President Trump’s latest anti-immigration power grab: a sweeping executive action that slaps an unlawful new $100,000 price tag on every new H-1B application.

Yesterday UAW members turned up at LA City Hall to demand that the city #KeepLAHoused. The rent is too damn high and LA must act now to make sure UAW members can continue to afford to live in LA. @uaw872.org @uaw4811.bsky.social @uaw2478.bsky.social
"That’s why everything we do — the strikes, the contracts, the organizing breakthroughs — it’s about one thing: building power. If we want to restore dignity and stability for working people, then we have to grow our movement."
"A recent report from @uawregion6.bsky.social outlines a bold vision for how to expand clean energy industries in California using union labor. It’s an example of how unions can get serious about industrial policy and assert themselves in the 'abundance' debate."
jacobin.com/2025/09/uaw-...
"We think that one of the best ways to have the collective political will to [address climate change quickly] is to have a strategic industrial policy that creates good middle class manufacturing jobs in sectors...like batteries, building decarbonization, heat pumps" www.politico.com/newsletters/...
"The report presents a vision for how the state can...expand clean energy industries...[and] ensure that jobs created in this build-out become high-quality union careers. It’s precisely the kind of forward-thinking approach labor needs to take on industrial policy." jacobin.com/2025/09/uaw-...
