“The workshops at the TDU Convention give you real-life advice on how to protect your rights, win more grievances, and look out for your benefits.”
Chuck Deaver, YRC
Local 174, Seattle

“With all the bad news in the union, it’s no wonder some members get discouraged. I keep coming back to the Convention because I get to meet other Teamsters who are working to make our union better—and are in it for the long-haul.”
Katie Brutcher, Anheuser-Busch
Local 1149, Baldwinsville, N.Y.
