    • The United Auto Workers is on strike against the nation’s largest automakers – the first time the union has hit every one of the Big Three at once.

    THINGS seem to be looking up for unions in the United States.

    The Writers Guild of America and the Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists have brought Hollywood to a screeching halt. United Parcel Service’s (UPS) workers secured a substantial wage increase.

    The United Auto Workers (UAW) are now on strike against the nation’s largest automakers – the first time the union has hit every one of the Big Three at once. And polling data released last month indicated that two-thirds of Americans approve of unions, a level last seen in 1965.
