He is a sworn law enforcement officer. He is covered by LEOSA. Who would the company call if they needed help. They should be rewarding him for his public service. Another reason I don’t like Volkswagen. Look where they are ranked for reliability

People don’t understand that the 1968 Federal Gun Control law was almost a direct copy of the NAZI 1930’s-gun laws. Senator Dodd (Senior) was part of the post war NAZI trials, and it took almost 20 years before Senator Dodd’s draft proposal (from 1964 – until 1983) that was created from his original translated German documents until the Military released a copy of the original translation. Surprise – that copy showed that it matched almost word for word what became the 1968 Gun Law with what the woman who did the translation, back in 1964. But even as early as the 1850’s Democrats had push various Gun Control laws.

In reply to LKP. FWIW, you can keep a private firearm in your trunk even on a military base these days if you have a CCW. That way you are protected to and from work.

In reply to Joe Bagadonuts. Tennessee is a Red State. I don't know if VW has a union, I do know that the VW workers have rejected unions in the past. I think VW will lose this one, Tennessee law is clear on guns in cars. It's allowed.

In WA state our car is part of our home and we can keep firearms in our car, even on company or government property. Tennessee needs to follow anti-gun WA on this one.

Move to a Red State with no unions, have work rules that completely contradict local laws. Good move VW!

In reply to Miner49er. This is not a private property case. VW has a factory with many employees. A private factory cannot demand female employees engage with in sex supervisors. They cannot violate any other laws or constitutional rights.
