WE NEED A CHANGE IN USA, IT IS TIME TO DESTROY THE DICTATORSHIP OF THE CAPITALIST CLASS, WE NEED 15 TO 20 DOLLARS OF MINIMUM WAGE AND FREE MEDICAL CARE
seriously, this argument of common labor representation could lead to mandatory minimum wages, benefits, options like being lined up with local work if your getting laid off if not mandatory severance packages and other very reasonable expectations like oversight in evaluating CEO and other 'supervisors' of all kinds getting more equitable pay rates?
New York has the earliest voter registration deadline of October 11th. 2019. Please, register as a Democrat to vote for Bernie in the Primary.
The power of the people FORCING this change must be massive. It's REVOLUTION time, folks. We do this now or we continue to slide to even more poverty and less power. This is a unique time – seize it.
berniesanders.com/issues/workplace-democracy/ – We have an ARMY OF PROGRESSIVES RUNNING NATIONWIDE – vote for them, folks – end roadblocks in congress.
I am a life long union supporter and member and have my union to thank for what I have. That is why I am baffled by union leaders lining up behind Biden, who along with Obama,, did nothing. but spit in the face of working people. Richard Trumka on Labor Day weekend got on TV and bad mouthed Medicare for all which is desperately needed by working people.
The union should be strengthened to boost the middle class. There's no other ways around
When there is more competition and less monopolies, then unions will not be needed but the case right now is that corporate mergers are often made.
Human Resources in the USA seems very barbaric! I live in New Zealand where unions are present but they're not as big as in other countries. Anyway, we get way better conditions than you guys. I try to not take my paid time off for granted!
Need more UNIONS.
Unfortunately this kind of labor agitation will incentivize businesses to continue to send jobs off shore and increased automation. Many job categories will be automated i.e. truck drivers, cabbies, fast food cooks etc.
when unions where strong….the salary labor compensations had an advantage for most part because of the scare of unionization…it wasn't equal, but it was of benefit for the weak.
The alternative media should begin a campaign promoting Bernie and his policies; this is essential to balance the anti-Bernie bias in the corporate media.
If Bernie, America's most popular politician loses in 2020 a cynicism will grip the country which I foretell will have dire consequences.
Sander should go to Venezuela and what they have accomplished in the workplace and the Communa and stop saying dumb things about Venezuela.

In accordance with the PCOC's recommendations, the Department of Justice's Organized Crime and Racketeering Section, working with various United States Attorneys' Offices, devised a strategy to use criminal prosecution and civil RICO lawsuits to eliminate such corrupt influence and/or control of particular labor unions and their affiliated organizations.  As of 2010, the United States had obtained relief in 24 civil RICO cases involving employer associations and labor unions including the IBT, LIUNA and the HEREIU. Such relief has generally consisted of the appointment of court-approved monitors to oversee the operation of particular organizations, supervise the election of new officers, and discipline or expel officials and members for corruption or knowing association with organized criminal groups. The results of the Department of Justice's strategy in 23 of the civil RICO cases can be reviewed on Civil RICO Manual Appendix B (starting on page 343 of the pdf). The implementation of that strategy continues under the guidance of OCGS' Labor-Management Racketeering Unit which supports federal criminal prosecution and civil RICO litigation in cases involving labor-management relations, internal labor union affairs, and the operation of employee pension and health care plans in the private sector. https://www.justice.gov/criminal-ocgs/infiltrated-labor-unions
