Volkswagen workers from Tennessee, fresh off winning a first contract in February, told Labor Notes how they’d won their union two years ago. They had a “tight network—and then the Stand Up Strike pushed us over the top,” said bargaining committee member Chris Brown.
Local union leaders who had joined and led fights with management, aided by the International union, have strongly supported the union’s new way: hard-hitting contract campaigns with high member involvement; ambitious, even life-changing contract goals; and strikes when necessary

“Keep in mind how far we’ve come in the last four years,” Fain said in his speech at the convention, which is held quadrennially. “We’ve gone from defense to offense. We’ve once again become a leading force in the labor movement.”
Delegates to the @UAW constitutional convention affirmed the aggressive direction the union has taken under President Shawn Fain, who took office in 2023 and immediately set the 400,000-member union on a new path, illustrated in bold campaigns like the Big 3 Strike (link in 🧵)
The Minnesota 15 include union carpenters, electricians, teachers, university staff, and nursing home workers 2/5
The federal government on Tuesday arrested and indicted 15 people, many of them union activists, on conspiracy charges over the protests and massive strike against ICE in Minnesota last winter (story linked in thread) 1/5
