In the US, tens of thousands of trade unionists and their supporters are
set to hold a demonstration in Philadelphia. But many within the
labour movement admit that it is in trouble in some states. The unions
suffered a massive political blow last year when public sector workers
were stripped of their collective bargaining rights in Wisconsin. They
are also criticised for being slow to embrace the Occupy Wall Street
movement. Now some say that to be successful, unions need to alter
their relationship with power and big business. Al Jazeera's Scott
Heidler reports from Philadelphia.
