Briefly: workers at the Nissan Canton (Mississippi) site will vote on 3 and 4 August on a UAW presence

On 17 July the US auto union announced it had secured an agreement with the Nissan site management to organize a two-day NLRB supervised vote that would allow the blue-collar workers to vote in favour of or against the UAW union setting up a presence in the company. Ahead of the results which will provide a great deal of information tensions continue to run high between the union and the US-Sino automaker (c.f. UAW press statement).
