Teamsters: No Endorsement for U.S. President

(WASHINGTON) — The General Executive Board of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters on Wednesday elected not to endorse any candidate for U.S. President.

“
While Harris pledged, if elected, to sign the PRO Act, an essential piece of labor legislation strengthening union protections, and criticized dangerous “right to work” laws that are enacted to bankrupt unions, Trump would not commit to veto national “right to work” legislation if he returned to the White House.

“‘Right to work’ laws only exist to try to kill labor unions,” said Teamsters General Secretary-Treasurer Fred Z. “It is a red line for the Teamsters and must be for any union when a candidate for elected office does not oppose such anti-worker legislation. It’s too important an issue for the labor movement as a whole to be left up to state legislatures.”

Republicans are anti union

Been a rough day and night for you I see. Up at 2am posting a press release from Teamsters that came out at 3pm just to say Republicans are anti union.

Most Teamsters know all this and yet the vast majority surveyed would still rather have Trump. That's very telling

Most older voters also always vote and trump threatening to take away our Social Security will make a huge difference. Most voters on SS don't make $45/hr.

Trump is not taking away social security..

 

[Darmark7]

Trump is not taking away social security..

Can you believe these people believe every lie they are told. I guess that is why Trump says “No tax on Social Security“ because there will be no Social Security.

 

[Appvol]

Trump is not taking away social security..

He knows that. It’s a Democrat talking point and has been for years. He is getting is check and if he is still working at 68 bless his heart. Well maybe he is working because of who he votes for

 

[Just A UPS Guy]

Trump is not taking away social security..

Social security isn't going anywhere.

 

[Darmark7]

Social security isn't going anywhere.

There is so much money in Social Security that they want to give it to millions of illegals that never paid in a dime. There must be extra trillions they are setting on.

Well this will probably be his first and only term as the teamsters president

Doubt it. More popular than ever currently. Harris is very unpopular unlike Biden who polled better among Teamsters. How many in the central alone will not be thinking about their pension and the huge raise when it comes time to vote? Who's running against him?

Especially with all that money left in the western fund ripe for plundering.

 

[MyTripisCut]

Would they instead support someone who was just installed as the presidential candidate and didn't even run in the Primary let alone win?

Your not a Teamster. Why are you talking?

The rest of us didn't get a pension increase..

Everyone should’ve got one, and I wouldn’t exactly call it huge.

Skimmed through this thread. I think SOB had a plan all along to hedge the Teamsters bets so to speak. Most polls and neighbors and teamsters and anyone else are 50/50 right now in politics. There is a deep divide in this nation on what people believe. Either way, I think he made a very smart decision by not endorsing a candidate. It lets both sides know that our vote is up in the air, and if they want to actually do anything for labor, then maybe they could secure that vote in the future. This decision will hopefully make whoever wins work for us and not against us.
