Membership in the United Auto Workers union fell 3.3% in 2023 to 370,000, its lowest level since 2009, according to a report filed on Friday with the U.S. Labor Department.

The UAW is "clear-eyed that our union and many of our industries have been going in the wrong direction for years," a union spokesperson said.

After winning record new contracts with General Motors Ford and Stellantis, the UAW launched a first-of-its-kind campaign to organize the entire non-union auto assembly sector in the U.S., initiating simultaneous organizing efforts at non-union operations owned by Volkswagen, Toyota, Mercedes-Benz, Hyundai and other automakers.
