I would.

Should his dues be used to support political candidates he does not endorse?

No but what can you do about it?

Lots of Teamsters dont agree with how leadership supports only liberal Democrats or other liberal causes.

If that's the case no

 

[Wally]

If that's the case no

So what we need is the non-union related budget items listed, including things like special minority-fringe group caucuses. Members can veto their participation in select budget items and dues will be decreased accordingly.

Thats your right under Beck. Union does not want you to know this.

Its the nuclear option, but it might be the right call.

Some Union dues has ALWAYS been used for political purposes.

I don't equate a union member insisting his or her dues not be spent in ways they do not believe in with being a rat.

It was a joke. Just like the RIP.
As for the rat...it is New York ya know.
People can't tell sarcasm on a comment board..

Like I said it is NY. Been there many times. The unions run that place.
And that is not sarcasm.

 

[meritocracy]

What a POS.

Money corrupts.
A lot of money. A lot of corruption.
Pay the dues and never fail to vote. Money enough has always been there to take care of the brotherhood.
