The United Auto Workers UAW's numbers are representative of the manufacturing sector: 1,619,000 members in 1970, 1,446,000 in 1980, 952,000 in 1990, 623,000 in 2004.
Labor history of the United States - NAFTA and threat of International Trade
The situation for the automotive industry and UAW members worsened dramatically in 1973. Gasoline prices shot up and, worse, Volkwagen and Honda started flooding the American market. For the first time major American industries had foreign competition for the domestic market. This started years of layoffs and the UAW found itself in the position of giving up some benefits it had won over the decades. This peaked with the near-bankruptcy of Chrysler in 1979 and actual bankruptcy of Delphi in 2005. By 2005 the total labor costs per employee had reached $65 per hour at General Motors, so in November 2005 it announced it would shut down more plants, costing 40,000 unionized jobs.
