A long time coming… and this time, they won.

The nurses of Chicago Assembly Plant are officially part of UAW Local 551. After trying to organize before and falling short, they came back stronger with the support of their union behind them.

Welcomed by Financial Secretary Horace Hardy, this moment says it all: persistence pays off.
