My experience with unions as a former teacher:

-Pay the dues or don't be hired in many districts.
-Union does basically nothing to protect you from bigger issues/litigation, despite claims they will, and districts will only help as long as they're on the line too.
-Constant pressure to donate money towards and vote for liberal causes and candidates.
-Salary negotiations every couple years with the district that didn't even match inflation adjustments.

In my experience as a former union member, and child of an activist and member of a different union, is that most unions in the US do a better job of lining the fat cats' pockets than taking care of their members.  

IMO, unions are good in theory, bad in practice. I'd never join one again.
