The United Auto Workers have filed an objection with the National Labor Relations Board, accusing Mercedes of intimidating and coercing workers at two Alabama factories to vote against joining the union. The UAW alleges that Mercedes engaged in unlawful practices and anti-union campaigns, leading to a majority vote against unionization. Mercedes has stated that they aimed for a fair election process and hoped the UAW would respect the workers' decision. The outcome marks a setback for the UAW's efforts to unionize auto plants in the Deep South.
