Union busters were just dealt a major blow.
Yesterday the NLRB issued a ruling that will force employers to recognize unions in the workplace if bosses commit unfair labor practices during a union election.
Labor laws are violated in over 40% of all union election campaigns.
TEAMSTERS UNITY IN NEW ENGLAND
Teamsters General President Sean M. O’Brien and General Secretary-Treasurer Fred Zuckerman joined Teamsters from across New England on Friday for Joint Council 10’s Annual Delegates Conference in Portsmouth, New Hampshire.
Despite the “play nice” public persona,@UPS has ignored our demands at the table. They want to keep screwing our members while making billions off their backs. Not f*cking happening. We’re putting an end to the disrespect. You have 48 hours to provide the last, best, final offer.

TEAMSTERS: NATIONWIDE UPS STRIKE IS IMMINENT
Today, the International Brotherhood of #Teamsters walked away from the national bargaining table and officially demanded @UPS exchange its last, best, and final offer no later than June 30. #1u
Don’t let them distract you. Unions create jobs, make work safer, and put more money in workers’ pockets. Most importantly, everything we do is to improve the lives of our members… I wonder if some others can say the same about their constituents? 🤔
Can't thank @SecMartyWalsh enough...I appreciate all the work you have done for the @Teamsters and for the labor movement these past two years. Always had our backs...Best of luck as you prepare for your new role with the @NHLPA 🏒🥅👊🏻
Earlier this week I met with @POTUS and he accepted that my time as Labor Secretary will conclude mid-March.
As a second-generation card-carrying union member, serving as your Secretary of Labor in the most pro-worker administration in our history is an immense privilege. (1/6)
Over 200 multiemployer plans were on pace to become insolvent in the near term, resulting in two to three million workers seeing their benefits cut in retirement.
Because of @POTUS' American Rescue Plan, those workers will now receive the benefits they paid into.
Yesterday, my campaign learned that one of our printing vendors misrepresented their union status. We’re receiving a refund of our spending with them and contributing it to @PrintLocal3’s Organizing Fund to support their ongoing work organizing local print shops. Full statement:
#Teamsters General President Sean O’Brien, the newest member of the @NABTU Governing Board of Presidents, attended the 2022 NABTU Legislative Conference today where attendees heard from @POTUS, Senate Majority Leader @SenSchumer & other leaders. #OurMovementOurMoment#1u
Unions gave my Irish immigrant family access to the American dream.
They amplify workers' voices so they can advocate for the values they want to see in their workplace and reflected in our workforce.
Unions exemplify America's core values.
Every immigrant's story is unique. For me, it's the story of Irish immigrant parents who got access to the American dream through unions.
They taught me the value and dignity of hard work. I wouldn't be where I am today without their sacrifices & example. #ImmigrantHeritageMonth
