Retailers are striking back against union-backed ads portraying the industry as plagued by low wages, a lack of benefits and erratic work hours, as the minimum wage fight heats up in the 2016 Democratic presidential race.
The National Retail Federation (NRF) will run two 30-second spots during Saturday night’s Democratic primary debate, highlighting the career opportunities in retail — the nation's largest private-sector employer — in response to United Food & Commercial Workers International Union (UFCW) ads that ran during last month’s debate calling for sweeping changes in the industry.
"In the heat of political rhetoric, it is easy to forget that retail businesses and the people who work in them not only drive the nation’s economy but also bring great passion and energy to what they do,” said NRF President and CEO Matthew Shay.
“NRF refuses to allow vested political interests to undercut the millions of men and women who are proud to work in retail, and we will continue to ensure that current and future legislators on the local, state and federal levels know the true value of retail jobs,” he added.

Said "labor", organized or not, a "special interest", yet business was not a special interest because it was the natural order of things. 
Talk about confirmation bias!
