I’ve been saying for a while - if employers treated everyone fairly, we wouldn’t need unions.
But they don’t.
So we do.

You guys need to do what we do in Canada - hand the drawing of constituencies over to a non-partisan body. However, because everything in the US seems to be political in nature, this might be impossible.
