I was able to buy a new tv and a ps5 for the family this Christmas, because my union benefits saved me so much out of pocket expenses throughout the year that I could afford it.

My union made sure that I got a guaranteed increase in pay this year so I can afford to live next year.

Because here they have to fight constantly and legal battles are expensive as shit in the US.
