In case you haven’t heard, unions are on the outs. Since they can’t force people to join their ranks in 27 states, and since the Supreme Court ruled they can no longer compel nonmembers to pay dues, participation has fallen to an all-time low.

Never one to take no for an answer, though, unions have turned to their old buddies in the Democratic National Committee for an assist. And boy, do the Democrats jump when the unions say jump!
