Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32%
Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.
As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

ICE agents spent Christmas Eve arresting a man in a Walmart parking lot—even taking his groceries for themselves.
A bystander asked ICE if she could take down the phone number of his wife to let her know her husband had been detained. The ICE agents refused.
