Disgraced, ousted Teamster VP Says “Vote Yes” on UPS Deal

Rome Aloise, who is suspended from all Teamster positions and offices for taking employer payoffs has endorsed the concessionary UPS deal. Will members buy what this corrupt official is selling?

But sometimes corrupt officials just sell out for free. Aloise took to Facebook today to endorse the UPS contract and denounce anyone for opposing givebacks.

“What are being called concessions are not,” Aloise said. He accused UPSers who oppose two-tier 22.4 Hybrid Drivers or $13 an hour wages for part-timers of “Picking the fly shit out of the pepper.”
