Hey, I'm a former union president myself and also an attorney that represented a lot of unions.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Starting that union was something I believed in very strongly.
I'm pro Union.
People have to be reminded that unions played a very historic role in our economy.
I certainly support civil unions.
I'm a union guy; I've always been. I've been in SAG 35 years; my father was a garbage man, a sanitation man, for the city, a union guy.
I've made a lifetime commitment to the union movement and to public education.
I was on my own union council for twenty-odd years.
If I were the president of the United States, I would make unions illegal. They no longer serve a functional purpose in democracy, in my view.
Being a conservative union member is almost like being an actor in Hollywood: You don't dare say it, or you might be injured on the job, or you might be laid off, or your family might have something happen to them.
The union is much more than me, and when you think the union is you and it's not about who you represent, I think you've sort of lost your morals and focus and the purpose of your leadership.
