Union-Specific Clipping File

At Labor Relations Institute we maintain an extensive file of newspaper clippings related to most international unions and their locals. These files include stories about union violence, corruption, embezzlement, racketeering, fines against members, and other unsavory activities. Reproduce and distribute these compelling articles to your voting group. Undecided and union-leaning voters are often converted by impartial, third-party reporting of the union's recent history.

Newspaper articles that are union-specific frequently show the side of unionization that organizers never talk about. Because these articles are taken directly from newspapers, they are usually accepted by the voting group as true without further explanation or documentation.
