But unions also set a higher pay standard that all workers enjoy.
In high-union-density states, median household income is $12,000 higher than in low-union-density states.
This is why unions are vital.
The Department of Justice hired a former Jan. 6 defendant who was caught on tape urging rioters to "kill" police. The department calls him a "valued member" of the administration.

Outrageous: ICE agents arrested a former U.S. Army interpreter who risked his life aiding American troops in Afghanistan, right after his asylum hearing in San Diego.
The interpreter legally entered the U.S. after the 2021 withdrawal from Afghanistan.
They just detained Brad Lander.
