In recent times, many states such as Wisconsin alter their laws towards right to work states. As a result many unions saw declines in their memberships. Last year alone, union members dropped 400,000 in the United States to 14.3 million even though national employment rose by $2.4 million. The union has seen its lowest level since 1916 at only 11.2%. Additionally, manufacturers such as Boeing and Volkswagen have expanded to non union states for continued growth.
