American workers can make speeches, participate in elections, and (most importantly) go out and vote.

Unions don't need to duplicate this. (Especially if the union higher-ups want to support a politician that the rank-and-file membership don't like.)
Edit: In fact, that might be an easier way to phrase the petition: No contributions from anyone who isn't on the voters' list. No corporate donations, no union donations, no foreign donations... and a smaller pool of campaign funding means fewer attack ads on TV, which is a bonus.

Indeed. Especially the bolded bit. If I ever again join a union, I don't want my dues spent on politicians whose position I abhor.
