According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, 7.1% of Idaho workers were union members in 2010. This includes teachers, fire & police workers. Idaho's been a "right to work" state for 25 years and has pretty well killed-off labor unions in private industry. Idaho ranks somewhere in the 40's in union membership among the states.
Another bill in the legislature will prohibit cities and counties from specifying wages when letting contracts, ie, no preference for unionized contracts, and none of this "living wage" nonsense!
