Am I missing something? There doesn't seem to be a single union name here. Reich is the closest you get, and as I recall, didn't he once say that "the jury [was] still out" on whether unions are relevant today? Maybe Bonior, but he's a politician, not a tribune of the people. How many scores of millions did they give the Dems, and they don't even get a seat on an advisory board?
