      1. New York is on the verge of passing a law to pay union members to go on strike, saving unions a fortune. https://www.wsj.com/articles/new-yorks-subsidy-for-striking-unions-11558391464 …pic.twitter.com/uYRSOlDhVf

      2. Public sector workers in New York are vastly more likely to be unionized than private sector workers. A single union, the New York State United Teachers union, represents more than 400,000 members, nearly a quarter of all unionized workers in NY state. https://slu.cuny.edu/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/Union_Density-2018-FINAL1.pdf …pic.twitter.com/H9HlxNgwwY

      3. New York has only recently been eclipsed by Hawaii as the most unionized state in the country, reflecting the political power behind such laws. https://www.bls.gov/regions/new-york-new-jersey/news-release/unionmembership_newyork_newjersey.htm …pic.twitter.com/YpYpS2xnyw

      5. In Manhattan, the great engine of New York's economy, only 7% of private sector workers are unionized. In the Bronx, it's almost 5 times that. But public sector workers are orders of magnitude more likely to be unionized.pic.twitter.com/WJ8n1iv71z

      6. When you look at the economically stagnant Upstate, however, public sector workers make more money on average than private sector workers https://www.empirecenter.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Taylor-Made_2018-Edition_Final-1.pdf …pic.twitter.com/nBJKnnnHRj

      8. In response, the state government is trying to keep workers from leaving unions, while encouraging union organizing https://www.crainsnewyork.com/article/20180709/BLOGS01/180709947/the-future-looks-bleak-for-new-york-s-unions …pic.twitter.com/47UDDd5OKv

      10. Meanwhile, public sector workers lack some of the protections from their own unions that private sector workers have: specifically, their unions aren't required to meet the same transparency standards https://www.empirecenter.org/publications/the-janus-ultimatum/ …pic.twitter.com/Ymzydhh8Bs
