United Auto Workers (UAW) President Shawn Fain is moving quickly in the union's sweeping organizing push at U.S. plants across more than a dozen automakers after clinching an historic victory at a Volkswagen plant in Tennessee.

GALLATIN, Tenn. — Tennessee Republican Gov. Bill Lee said Monday that he thinks workers at a Volkswagen plant in Chattanooga made “a mistake” by voting to unionize under the United Auto Workers in a landslide election, but acknowledged the choice was ultimately up to them.

Volkswagen workers in Tennessee voted decisively to become a union shop, according to election results released Friday, marking the first victory for organized labor at a foreign-owned auto plant in the American South.
