Membership in the United Auto Workers union rose 3% in 2022 to 383,000 as it works to organize workers in battery plants and other electric vehicle components.

Last month, Shawn Fain won a closely contested race against incumbent Ray Curry for UAW president by fewer than 500 votes out of about 140,000 cast. Fain said last week the union was ready to go to war against "employers who refuse to give our members their fair share."

Membership in the Detroit-based union rose from 372,000 in 2021 but is still down from 397,000 at the end of 2020. At its high, the union had 1.5 million members in 1979. "We're just getting started," Fain said in a statement Monday of the new figures.
