May 29, 2013: To gear up for their 2013 convention the AFL-CIO has started a discussion forum to talk about the future of the labor movement. Each week a new moderator, from labor journalists, professors, directors of community organizations and worker centers, and more, helps facilitate. Join the conversation at "Let's Talk".
The two IBT vice presidents from Canada and the president of Teamsters Canada have petitioned among Canadian Teamsters to accredit the Team Canada Slate in the IBT Election. Yesterday the Election Supervisor reported that they submitted 8,156 petition signatures, far more than the needed number of 2,807 in Canada.
Hundreds of Teamsters made organizing plans, set our movement’s direction, and elected our TDU leadership for the coming year at the first (and hopefully last!) online TDU Convention.
