Message: From GoLocalProv by GoLocalProv News Team: The number of American workers who belong to a labor union has dropped to a record low nationwide but in Rhode Island as the opposite may be true. According to figures released this week by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the Ocean State was just one of 14 states in the country to see a rise in its union membership rate from 2011 to 2012 as an increase in the total number of people employed helped boost the percentage of those listed as members of union from 17.4 to 17.8 and those represented by unions from 17.9 to 18.4 percent. http://www.golocalprov.comhttp://beta.golocalprov.com/new-despite-national-decline-rhode-island-sees-increase-in-union-membership
