ABF Management Lashes out

December 28, 2012:  ABF management issued an angry press release which tried to blame Teamster benefits for their low profits.

The International union issued a response, which is available here.

The IBT negotiating team needs to stand firm and keep members informed and involved at every step of the negotiating process.

ABF Teamsters voted down concessions in 2010 and are prepared to do so again.

Concerned ABF Teamsters – and other freight Teamsters, too – can stay informed and get involved by signing up for regular e-mail updates at NoFreightConcessions.org.
