Unions and Feminism

As a feminist, I am happy to hear that maids are now being issues panic buttons in case something goes wrong while on the job.  Unsurprisingly, it was a union that fought for these rights.
Because of certain friends and family members, I hear complaints about unions all the time, but this right here is an example of what they do: fight for workers.  As sad as the cases that prompted this change are, this has gone on a long time, and feminism and socialism have stepped up to make protection a priority.
