U.S. Sen. Bob Corker (click here) today joined others in challenging United Auto Workers subpoenas for a planned hearing next week over the union’s appeal of a February employee vote at Volkswagen’s Chattanooga plant.
“Everyone understands that after a clear defeat, the UAW is trying to create a sideshow, so we have filed a motion to revoke these baseless subpoenas,” said Todd Womack, Corker’s chief of staff, in a statement. “Neither Sen. Corker nor his staff will attend the hearing on Monday.”
The UAW had cited the Tennessee Republican’s statement during the election that should workers reject the UAW, he had assurances VW would bring a second vehicle assembly line to Chattanooga....
It would seem no matter what wind direction Senator Corker took, he openly admits he 'had words.' Subpoenas are appropriate.
