Unions also help with internal university issues like better stipends, healthcare, and work conditions - things that matter regardless of federal fundng cuts.

Yeah Union contract. Stipends, healthcare, etc also rely mostly on funding. Work conditions like equipment, AC, lots of that is funding too.
