Kildee, Blumenauer, Pascrell Urge Tridonex to Respect Workers' Freedoms Ahead of Union Vote

Statement

"We are closely monitoring the union election process recently scheduled for Monday, February 28 in Matamoros, México at the Tridonex auto parts factory. This facility was the site for the first independent petition under the USMCA labor rapid response mechanism that House Democrats successfully fought to secure. Reports of worker intimidation and allegations of bribery by the incumbent union at Tridonex are disturbing and unacceptable. The employer and relevant authorities must pursue every available measure to ensure workers are informed of their rights and have full access to a safe, free and fair vote. We support and expect aggressive enforcement action by the Biden administration to protect and defend any workers' rights that are violated."
