In reply to the discussion: Union member in you family? CHECK IN [View all]Demsrule86
(69,096 posts)47. I still have my teamster union credentials from when I did office work as a young woman.
I am a member of the teachers union, and my son is UAW. He is voting a straight Democratic ticket. My daughter-in-law is also voting straight for a straight Democratic ticket. My daughter-in-law's parent are pro-life to a point but they don't like what is happening with medical care, birth control pills, and IUDs so they are all voting Democratic. They feel the GOP has gone too far. The Dad is a member of the Teacher's union. We all live in Ohio
