Why is it overkill to ask for support from a colleague? Clearly OP doesn't feel comfortable raising this directly with the employer at this time. Maybe discussing with the union rep would give her the confidence to speak with a manager one to one, or maybe the OP would prefer the rep to come with her or help her draft an email to the boss. Her rep may have experience of dealing with this situation and what solutions were found that were of benefit to the company and the employees.
Asking a workplace rep for support in having a conversation with the employer is not provocative or confrontational in any way. I'm not suggesting the OP demands that the union call a strike over this!
I agree, the union rep may also know if there are others in a similar position, presumably there are others that work the night shift, so it may be appropriate to organise a session for them.0
