Happy Labor Day!

I was glad to read that in the latest polling 71% of Americans now approve of labor unions. In the United States the union-busting Republican Party created state "right to work" laws to destroy America's private sector unions, and thus, much of the American middle class. Now, we are fighting back as Union membership grows across the country. From Starbucks on, 2022 has been a great year for unions. In 2022 unions won 641 elections — the most in nearly 20 years, according to data from Bloomberg Law, which analyzes National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) data.

As the grandson of a truck driver, a railroad engineer, and a nurse - labor and union life have been themes in my family.
I like to reflect on these issues in my art as well.
