UAW reaches tentative contract with Volkswagen in Chattanooga

The UAW reached a tentative contract with Volkswagen for 3,200 workers at its Chattanooga plant, marking a significant win in the South. The agreement includes a 20 percent raise, bonuses, and improved healthcare benefits. Union officials will present details before a ratification vote expected next week. This deal follows years of UAW organizing efforts in the region and could pave the way for further unionization at other Southern auto plants.
