Corker and other Republicans sought a compromise that would have required the carmakers to restructure their debt and bring wages and benefits in line with those paid by Toyota, Honda and Nissan in the United States. The legislation died when Republicans demanded upfront pay and benefit concessions from the United Auto Workers, which union leaders rejected.

Yeah, those Republicans were bad for demanding, when the bondholders were going to take a 70% haircut, that the UAW give anything up.

This union needs to die. I know Corker is trying hard to bring them to terms, but honestly, he just needs to back off and let the UAW hang itself so we can be done with them once and for all.
