    Abbott’s hostility to working class people and unions is not a secret. He’s fearmongered about “Big Labor,”especially public sector unions for years. Labor unions by any stretch of the imagination are not big, at all Texas is a right-to-work state. Union membership is  barely 4.5% of the statewide workforce. Abbott aggressively promotes Texas as a “business-friendly” precisely because of its anti-union laws and low taxes to corporations wanting to flee states, where unions are numerically larger and more politically influential. Abbott has seized every opportunity in his long political career to weaken unions and undermine every effort to improve workers’ lives in Texas.
