.@JackWalsworth with an update on @UAW-@VW contract talks, which are nearing the one-year mark without a deal. Among other aspects, a 20% raise over 4 years is currently on the table. The union wants 24.5% over 3. https://t.co/szFrGUd3Es

Per @JackWalsworth: @UAW-@VW contract negotiations begin Thursday. UAW-VP Chuck Browning will lead the union's bargaining team. https://t.co/kbyddYQv0Z

Profit-sharing, COLA, retirement security, affordable health care and the elimination of tiers appear to be the UAW's focus points for bargaining with VW.

Chicago's new Bears stadium plan announcement reminds me of Elon Musk and Rahm Emanuel talking about the tunnel to O'Hare.

🚨 According to an unofficial @UAW tally, @VW workers in Chattanooga have voted overwhelmingly to join the union. After decades of false starts and failures, the UAW breaks through in the American South. https://t.co/s3HYkYzIQo

The UAW claimed victory by a 2,628-985 vote after two failed attempts in the past decade to organize Volkswagen's Chattanooga plant.

Workers start voting tomorrow on whether or not to join the @UAW at @VW's Chattanooga plant. It's the latest chapter in an interesting history between the union and VW. My colleague @JackWalsworth put together this handy timeline: https://t.co/EIc2xVsdUl

The vote on whether to join the union, set for this month, looks to be the latest chapter in a colorful, and complicated, history between the UAW and VW.

I figured I would see some camouflaged vehicles while back in southeast Michigan. Did not anticipate it being a G-Wagen in Ann Arbor
