Unions are not for the good employes. Unions protect the jobs of those who could not keep them otherwise. Unions protect the least common denominator.

Many union members support Bush and the Republicans. One friend is a long term union member who supports Republicans when they are true to capitalist ideals.

In 1995 Clinton entered an order to rescind an order that all employers be required to post notice of employees rights under the Beck decision.

The problem is that the law requires no one to tell the workers that their contributions to political causes are supposed to be voluntary. Thus, union leaders can continue to dock money from workers' paychecks for their own political use. Only when a union member objects does the union stop collecting , and even then it is only from that single member.

Almost all of the organizations at the top of political contributions are Unions. Almost all of those dollars go to Democrat causes.
