Teamsters at 12 breweries across the US, who bring in $58 million a year for the company, are fighting for job security, higher wages, better retirement benefits, and to win back union work.

The International Union doubled strike benefits for Anheuser-Busch Teamsters. Members have organized “practice picketing” across the country to show Budweiser they are ready to strike. 

Molson-Coors Teamsters in Fort Worth, TX also walked off the job in mid-February after the company failed to bargain a fair contract. Molson-Coors offered less than $1 in new wages after six straight years of ballooning profits.

Under new leadership, Teamsters are using practice picketing and the strike weapon to win strong contracts.
