This is how unions work for everyone

Now these workers should join UAW cause it’s the right thing to do if they’re benefiting from the unions work.

Nice! Free pay raise right before forming a union.

One way to look at: "here's a pay increase to help subsidize your new union!"

If even the threat of a union can improve outcomes, imagine how good it would be to actually be unionised!

I want them to double-unionize. Your move, Tesla.

Yo dawg, I heard you like unions...

It won't last.

Remember all of the tech companies hired tens of thousands of people last year... Before they fired tens of thousands of people last year.

Defeat the fucking capitalists

The only way Tesla ever gets a union is if musk is dead.
