Brett Wilkins at Common Dreams reports that despite corporate-backed efforts to erode Union Power in the United States for more than a century, U.S. public support for Organized Labor is higher than it's been in seven decades, according to the annual Gallup Labor Day Poll, which revealed 70% of Americans approve of Labor Unions, while 23% disapprove.  That's up from last year's 67% approval rate.  Two years ago, 71% of survey respondents said they were Pro-Union, but 26% disapproved, meaning this year's 47-point approval margin was slightly wider than in 2022.  The upswing in support for Organized Labor has been attributed to a wave of successful organizing in recent years.  Recent Organized Labor wins are reflected in this year's survey finding that 34% of respondents believe Unions will become stronger than they are today - up from 19% last year.
