It’s a real shame for unions then… but also, it means that they exist still. If you have nothing in your state you can still contact one in another state. They’ll have contacts of people in your area, or at least they can help you set something up.
And being in a union doesn’t mean that you have to actually show it and fight inside your own company (at least I hope it’s not like that in the US). You can help the union and participate in other actions not targeted at your company and noone will be the wiser about it.
And if by some weird bureaucratic US-only reason you have to disclose it, you can still contact them, offer support and participate in stuff without officially joining anything.
