On January 18, 2019, the BLS released its annual report on union membership in the United States.
Overall union membership declined .2% to 10.5% of the workforce.
Union membership in the public sector was 33.9% and 6.4% in the private sector.
These numbers vary widely by state and industry and readers would need to review the entire report for more detail.
No matter where one stands on unionization, what is surprising to me is that the BLS, a federal government agency, is continuing to operate during the current federal government partial shutdown.
