It is bad faith because the evidence you provide is accusing the unions of working towards their expressed interest, to protect the workers from bad labor practices.

Unions also have a notion of solidarity. What is good for workers in California is usually good for workers in New York. That is why you will often see unions acting across state (and industry) boundaries, in solidarity with other unions and non-union workers.

Your argument is as naive as saying politicians act in the best interest of their voters or that companies act in the best interests of their consumers.

Entities act in the best interests of themselves.
