Support For Unions: Up
The latest results from the 2015 installment of Gallup’s annual Work and Education survey
show that Americans’ approval of labor unions has jumped five
percentage points to 58% over the past year, and is now at its highest
point since 2008, when 59% approved. Consistent with the recent increase
in approval of unions, the percentage of Americans saying they would
like labor unions to have more influence in the country has also been
rising, and now stands at 37%, up from 25% in 2009. Meanwhile, the
percentage wanting unions to have less influence has declined from 42% to 35%.
