August 1, 2008: UPS Freight Teamsters in Kansas City have rejected the Association of Parcel Workers of America for the third time by a vote of 157-58. This outfit is a wrong turn down a blind alley for Teamsters who want positive change.
The IBT and the Department of Justice have filed a joint motion in court to ask for approval on a plan to sunset federal oversight of the Teamsters. What does this mean for the future of anti-corruption efforts and International elections in our union?
An administrative law judge has ordered Amazon to recognize and bargain with Teamsters at the DCK6 delivery warehouse in San Francisco after finding the company violated federal labor law by refusing to recognize the union.
