No problem with public employees having the vote , but do complain about left wing ideologies being pushed/
proselytized in what should be a independant place of employment

Of course unions will be left-leaning with left wing agendas. And the wealthy, and big business in general, with their right-wing agendas, will donate money to right wing parties. It's the name of the game. Or, at least, how the game is played. In Canada, the unions stand solid behind the New Democratic Party, although individual members vote for other parties.
By the way, there is a chance, according to the polls, that the New Democrats may get enough seats in next week's general election, to form a minority government ... or, at least, lead Her Majesty's Loyal Opposition. I wonder how that will go down in Washington
