TDU Membership Drive

Teamster members have won new leadership in our International Union. It will take more member involvement at every level to rebuild our union’s power. 

TDU helps rank and file Teamsters stand up to employers, win good contracts, develop as union activists, and build stronger local unions, including by running for local union office.

One-year memberships will automatically renew in one year. If you want to cancel your membership at any time, contact TDU.

New one-year members get a free t-shirt. New three-year members get a free hoodie.


TDU membership is kept confidential from employers and union officials.

TDU solicits and accepts membership applications and donations only from Teamsters, and from individual retired Teamsters and spouses who are not employers.

We reserve the right to exclude those who are opposed to TDU or its principles.
