Hoffa’s General Executive Board held a kangaroo court today and suspended six political opponents from union membership, including Teamsters United candidate Tim Sylvester. Members are gearing up for a legal fight to stop Hoffa’s power grab.

Facing a lifetime ban from the Teamsters, corrupt Hoffa power broker Rome Aloise is asking the judge for leniency so he can cash in as a consultant to employers. Attending his last GEB meeting, Aloise blamed his downfall on a right-wing conspiracy.

Under pressure from the members, Hoffa has sent a letter to UPS denouncing the 70-hour work week. The International Union and our locals need to follow up with action.

Sign the petition launched by Teamsters United to tell UPS to stop forcing drivers to work 70 hours a week and demand Hoffa and the Package Division step up to protect drivers and the public.

Some 500 Teamster retirees, actives and spouses jammed a union hall in South St. Paul Minnesota in support of the Butch Lewis bill to save pensions in jeopardy.

UPS is unilaterally increasing the maximum work week for package drivers from 60 to 70 hours in many areas. UPS Teamsters in New England are fighting back. 

The Teamsters Union can stop UPS from forcing package drivers to work 70-hours a week during peak. Here’s how. 

UPS has imposed new work rules that could force exhausted drivers to work up to 70 hours a week during peak. Drivers deserve a strong union response, not another Hoffa surrender.

Teamster pension activists – organized by the National United Committee to Protect Pensions (NUCPP) - are collecting signatures on a petition to build support for legislation that would protect 10 million Americans from pensions from cuts. Sign the petition in support of the Butch Lewis Act. 

TDU is at a crossroads. Last year, the reform candidate for General President won the majority of the vote in the U.S. TDU is building a movement to finish the job.
