Union benefits are one of the most important issues that concern the ranks of organized labor. However, just as unions have changed in response to an ever-changing global economic climate, so has the American family. Describe the extent to which you think that the benefit needs of the unionized family has changed over time. What benefits do you think are more important today to members of organized labor than they were 20, 30, or 40 years ago? Are there benefits that should be provided to the American worker that are generally not provided by American employers? You may provide personal and/or professional examples from your background illustrate your answer.
