And you know why. Washington DC union membership is 82% higher than the average nationwide.

Liar! Not even higher let alone 82% higher. (Not that that would have any correlation with the federal bureaucracy, regardless.)

The percentage of workers belonging to a union (or total labor union "density") varies by country. In 2019 it was 10.3% in the United States google.com.
