After being a member of a police union for over 10 years, I can confidently say police unions across the country are way too powerful and corrupt.

I don't think it is just police unions, I think all unions are corrupt. I think unions need to go!

Then there's the issue of the influence of police unions on politics which seriously needs to be broken and outlawed. That said, the pros still outweigh the cons.

Oh yes! Because there's too much politics. Dirty politics at that.

You are right! I know they are also doing something for our own good. But now I am no longer sure if they are genuinely helping or not.

While most teachers are protected by teacher unions, I feel my voice hasn’t been heard at all with my concerns of going back to school next week. Our diocese has decided on full return 5 days/ week for all 42 schools despite a recent increase in COVID in our communities. Every other school that I know of in my state is either choosing remote learning to start the year or a hybrid approach, yet that was not an option for us. Are other Catholic schools I. The same boat? Stay safe!
