United Automobile Workers

The International Union, United Automobile, Aerospace and Agricultural Implement Workers of America, yang lebih dikenal sebagai United Automobile Workers (UAW), adalah sebuah serikat buruh Amerika yang mewakili para buruh di Amerika Serikat (termasuk Puerto Riko) dan Kanada. Didirikan sebagai bagian dari Congress of Industrial Organizations (CIO) pada 1930an, UAW berkembang cepat dari 1936 sampai 1950an. Di bawah kepemimpinan Walter Reuther (presiden 1946-70), organisasi tersebut memainkan peran besar dalam sayap liberal Partai Demokrat, yang meliputi hak asasi sipil dan gerakan anti-Komunis.
