Members speak out on why they support O'Brien-Zuckerman Teamsters United.

By TDU Co-Chair Frank Halstead

TDU members have participated in every single Teamster International Officer election. We know what it takes to run a serious opposition campaign. The Fearless Slate has failed every test. They don’t deserve our support.

Six hundred Teamsters Local 96 members at Washington Gas have won a new contract with record wage increases of 18 percent after mobilizing a contract campaign. The victory came after members voted by 98.2 percent to authorize a strike at the natural gas utility that serves Washington D.C. and surrounding areas.

TDU members are proud to support the reelection of Sean O’Brien and the O’Brien-Zuckerman Teamsters United Slate. Here are 10 reasons why.

Teamsters California and a coalition of unions have submitted more than 1.5 million signatures to get a bill on the ballot that would require billionaires in California to pay a one-time 5% emergency billionaire tax to protect union jobs and healthcare for state residents.

After three days on strike, 3,500 commuter rail workers from the Teamsters and four other unions have won a new contract with the Metropolitan Transit Authority (MTA) in New York. Workers won all the wage increases they demanded.
