Union members have been fighting attacks on worker rights
 and protections on many fronts.
 These are not random, unconnected attacks. 
They are the result of a coordinated strategy by a corporate-funded 
ideological movement that aims to eventually destroy the labor movement. 
Other progressive movements have seen hard won gains attacked and eroded as well.
