"Gen Z's Pro-Union Stance: Will They Mobilize?"

A recent poll shows that Gen Z is the most pro-union generation alive, with a mean union approval of 64.3%. However, union membership is at an all-time low. The strike at Rutgers University, the first in the institution's 250-year history, is part of a larger trend in labor politics, where more young workers are embracing unions and the potential protections they can bring to the workplace. President Joe Biden and Democratic lawmakers have backed the sentiments in the PRO Act, which would impose heftier penalties on employers who try to squash unionization drives.
