I need help with some of the latest demographic statistics on union organizing. I know that women are the only portion of the working class to increase in percentage unionized in the last decade or two but I need to know more definitively what this trend is. If possible, please provide the sources of all statistics. In particular: **What is the percentage of all unionized workers (male and female) in the USA currently and how is that a decrease from the turn of the century (or any intermediary point, but the longer the trend the better)? **What is the increase in female unionization and where is that increase taking place (I believe it is in Civil Service jobs)? **How has the increase in female unionization changed the ratio of male to female union members as a percentage of all union members? **What is the racial/ethnic composition of these changes for both men and women, but particularly women? Thanks to everyone in advance. maggie coleman [EMAIL PROTECTED] p.s. Whenever I post for help on these lists, I always get a great response and much of it comes from people I've never seen post to the list itself. This always makes me aware of how many lurkers there are out there on the internet.
