Teamster President Sean O'Brien's speech at the Republican National Convention has drawn backlash from both the union and its critics, who view his move as "two-faced."
Two major shifts are occurring in U.S. workers’ attitudes toward labor unions: the rise of workers who are interested in, but unsure about, unions and an emerging generation gap between younger and older workers.
As published by Gallup, it reports that in 2025 68% of U.S. adults approve of Labor Unions, essentially unchanged from the 2024 poll. This is the fifth consecutive year that approval of Organized Labor has been in the 67% to 71% range and even through the number of elections are down and with smaller units, at nearly 80% the union election win rate is significant.
First of all unions have patience, they have a long history of looking for easy targets regardless if it is a complicated corporate campaign or a single unit, they will calculate their odds of winning and only quit when they come to the conclusion that it's not worth their time or expense, the organizing department/organizers have one job and one goal, that is to grow the membership and advance their individual careers.
The CWA spent six years organizing 40,000 New Jersey state workers, they spent five years to win card check recognition at SBC Communications Inc which later merged with AT&T, as a result today there are more than 54,000 new CWA-represented workers, 18 years with American Airlines Passenger Service Agents leading to more than 9,000 new CWA-represented workers largely in the South.
The first attempts to organize farm workers started in 1890, In 1914 the Agricultural Workers Organization and the Industrial Workers of the World engaged in one of the first serious attempts in Washington State to organize the farm labor force, the United Farm Workers Organizing Committee started in 1965 when Filipino and Mexican migrant farm workers joined together to strike against the Delano-area grape growers. The UFW and other unions are still organizing Agricultural Workers today.
Tech union organizing started getting serious around 1970 and was considered one of the hardest groups of workers to organize. Unionization has picked up speed since 2019 as several unions have successfully launched initiatives to organize tech workers, such as the Communications Workers of America, United Steel Workers and Office and Professional Employees International Union.
Many times, unions are only communicating with your employees for a short time before an RC petition is filed, so how did you lose them and why didn’t you see it coming?
A union petition is usually the result of a breakdown of communications that has existed for some time and the union organizer’s goal is to trigger that discontentment, this is the point when they are telling you that they don’t trust you anymore.
A majority of workers want a friendly and respective relationship with their managers but don’t want to be their friends, they want leaders who will have their best interests at heart, look at it as if someone believes that they are in a perilous situation, they will turn to anyone that might be able to help them, that is why the unions can have a tremendous amount of influence over workers in a short time.
ATU Local 1005, SEIU Local 26, UNITE HERE Local 17, CWA Local 7250, and St. Paul Federation of Educators Local 28 are supporting the call for a general strike and organizers expect the list to grow in coming days.

EV enthusiasts beware, GM has just announced their all-new 0-emission engine that will make electric and internal combustion vehicles obsolete! This all-new radical technology is said to be the next revolution in the automotive world and will drive us towards a completely eco-friendly future of cars! GM has been searching for an alternative to EVs for years now, and their search has led them to the all-new compressed air technology! Compressed air has already been seen to be of limited use in the 19th century, mostly with mine locomotives and trams in some European cities, the most notable of which is Paris. However, the technology has since been dropped and forgotten in favor of internal combustion engines, because of their immediate potency. However, in the early 2010s, the French Car manufacturer, Peugeot, saw the potential in combining compressed air with internal combustion engines into an all-new hybrid technology that retains the eco-friendliness of a regular hybrid, without needing a battery! While these prototypes didn’t really move far from the testing stage, they did spark a fair bit of interest from the rest of the automotive industry, most notably GM.
So, let's not waste any time and check out this new way of thinking as GM CEO announces This New Engine That Will CHANGE The World!
