The United Auto Workers (UAW) has secured new deals from the three largest American auto companies after a six-week strike, reinstating lost benefits and achieving wage increases. The agreements also involve reopening the Belvidere Assembly Plant. However, the UAW's victory has raised questions about the future of the automobile industry, particularly in relation to electric vehicles. Ford's production workers at Kentucky and Louisville have voted against a proposed labor contract, while skilled trades workers voted in favor. The UAW's resurgence has prompted a Senate committee hearing, and a new federal rule could make it easier for workers to unionize, facing pushback from businesses and some members of Congress. The UAW's achievements include securing thousands of new jobs and encouraging $40 billion investment in the American auto industry, as stated by Joe Biden.
