According to analysts, the result might encourage workers at other industries in the area to follow suit.At an Alabama Mercedes-Benz plant, there will be another UAW election in May. The union has already started to organize at other companies.The UAW, whose membership has been continuously declining, said last year that it will target 13 foreign-owned factories in the South. This move was made by UAW boss Shawn Fain.

The plans sought to capitalize on the organization’s successful strike last year at General Motors, Ford, and Stellantis, which garnered the union workers substantial pay raises and other perks.However, it represented a bold move for the party, intimately linked to the Democratic Party, to enter a historically anti-union and ardently Republican region of the nation.Republican governor of Tennessee Bill Lee was one of the prominent figures in politics opposing the UAW initiative.

However, in contrast to the governor’s 2019 speech to employees at a Volkswagen-hosted conference, there was less political opposition this time, and Volkswagen declared its official neutrality in the conflict.
