Bringing Democracy to Pennsylvania Labor Unions
Priya Abraham
Commonwealth Foundation for Public Policy AlternativesIn the public's eyes, labor unions have traditionally been the voice of working people. However, a closer look at how unions run their own organization reveals a stunning lack of accountability by union leadership toward union members. For example, in Pennsylvania, fewer than 1 percent of public school teachers voted for the union representing them.
Opening the Curtain on Government Unions
Priya Abraham
Commonwealth Foundation for Public Policy AlternativesCollective bargaining is the process by which labor unions negotiate pay, benefits, and working conditions with government agencies. Because such labor contracts involve billions of taxpayer dollars, citizens have a right to know what each side is proposing before being legally obligated to fund them. In addition, Pennsylvania should require state labor unions representing government workers to file annual financial reports demonstrating how union dues are spent.
Together, such transparency reforms would make government more accountable to taxpayers, and unions more accountable to their members, while better controlling government spending.

She is patient, kind, and professional!
