It is no secret that the American labor movement is in trouble. Union membership in the US has steadily declined the last 50 years from one-third of all workers to only one in ten. Not coincidentally, this decline mirrors the ascendancy of neoliberal political and economic programs, which have, by and large, been antagonistic to labor unions. So-called “free trade” deals have shifted union-heavy manufacturing jobs away from the US to countries with few-to-no worker or environmental protections, while market fundamentalist think tanks and legal organizations have waged a more insidious campaign to undermine and ultimately destroy collective bargaining and other workers rights.
