Title: 10 States With The Weakest Unions * *Date: Feb. 25, 2013 Source: Huffington Post **

*Summary: *Last year, the number of union members in the U.S. fell by more than 400,000, or 2.7%.

In the past few years, states like Wisconsin and Michigan have passed legislation like “right-to-work” laws and even banned collective bargaining, further undermining public and private unions.
