The current union boom in the US has led to many Americans researching the topic more and more.

We used <\/span>Google Trends Search Data<\/span><\/a> from the past 12 months along with <\/span>Glimpse<\/span><\/a> to determine how many people are searching for \u201cjoin union<\/strong>.\u201d While there is a small decrease in the United States, many states saw a very large increase in residents searching for \u201cjoin union.<\/strong>\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

We also found that the UK is seeing a boom in interest with an increase of 91%<\/strong> in the past month. Australia has also seen an increase of 42%<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n
