I sincerely hope that THIS victory will be the catalyst that turns around the 40 year erosion
of LABOR & Working Class Rights (Human Rights)!

The period that produced the largest, fastest growing, wealthiest, most Upwardly Mobile Working Class the World has ever seen
was the period when American UNIONS were the strongest.

Coincidence?
I think not.
