Yes you have, the Screen Actors Guild is an industry-wide actor’s union. The Writers Guild of America is an industry-wide guild for writers. The Teamsters as well. Actually most “Blue Collar” unions are industry unions. Plumbers, carpenters, electricians, etc. all have industry-wide unions. It is a recent phenomenon relegated to service and sales industries that are forcing unions to be only at single stores instead of industry or even company wide.
Interesting, I don’t think I’d heard of an industry union like that. It’s a great idea
