More workers voted to certify unions this year than they have in the past 15 years.

The Center for American Progress reported that 74% of company elections resulted in a union this year, which was a little less than 10% higher than in 2020 This comes on the heels of last year seeing another 15-year record of 1,777 elections, with not as many agreeing to a union.

In 2010, there were over 1,900 elections surrounding unions. Roughly 62% of them resulted in union certificaiton.

This comes months after President Joe Biden referred to himself as “the most pro-union president.” Biden has since nabbed the endorsement of the United Auto Workers. Former President Donald Trump has also received the backing of some unions.

Meanwhile, The Freedom Foundation reported 13,000 employees are now former union members, which included a steady decrease of over 4,000 every month, as of the third quarter of this year. Between Sept. 10 and 16, a record of 1,390 opt-outs were reported. The previous single-day record was beaten with 445 in a single day.

“It’s become increasingly clear that unions exist to pay union bosses and elect politicians who will grow government and push left-wing agendas that many working people don’t agree with,” Freedom Foundation CEO Aaron Withe said. “They play politics with other people’s money, and the hard-working Americans just trying to keep up with inflation are tired of it.”

Membership among public-sector workers is five times higher than the rate of private-sector workers, at 33.1% versus 6%, respectively. Out of all union members in the workforce, private and public sector employees are almost equal in number at 7.2 million and 7.1 million, respectively.
