After its defeat at the Mercedes-Benz complex in Alabama, the UAW is pursuing actions with the NLRB and in German courts while planning its next steps to organize non-union auto plants in the U.S.
“The UAW has allocated $40 million for organizing and is looking to organize other plants in the South as well.
