TDU's International Steering Committee (ISC) met this weekend in our new Brooklyn office. We discussed our priorities for the coming year, planned how to support Teamster members enforcing their contracts and organizing their coworkers, and tried some classic NY eats.

Party Time #PaulTyson

Over 250 UPS Teamsters participated in the 2024 TDU Convention. We held workshops every day on enforcing the contract and building Teamster power at UPS.

A key point missing in a lot of post debate analysis is that Trump’s claim about immigrants eating pets almost perfectly syncs up to the piano in the Peanuts theme song.

TEAMSTERS MOURN DEATH OF INDIANA UPS FEEDER DRIVER KILLED IN CRASH The #Teamsters Union is mourning the loss of Julie Reid, a UPS feeder driver and member of Teamsters Local 135, who was killed in a fatal crash and vehicle fire this morning. “Julie was a great union sister and supporter of Local 135. We are shocked and devasted by this loss,” said Dustin Roach, President of Local 135 in Indianapolis. “Our entire union sends our love to her family and friends, and we are ready to support them in this very difficult time.” The three-vehicle crash occurred early Tuesday morning on I-65 in Scotts County, Indiana, resulting in a fire involving Sister Reid’s truck. “Our hearts go out to the family, friends, and co-workers of Sister Julie Reid,” said Teamsters General President Sean M. O’Brien. “This tragedy is felt by all 1.3 million Teamsters nationwide. We send our deepest condolences to Julie’s loved ones and we join them in mourning her passing.” 🙏

SEAN O’BRIEN, TDU KICK OFF LABOR NOTES CONFERENCE Teamsters General President Sean M. O’Brien and Teamsters for a Democratic Union helped kick off the annual Labor Notes conference in Chicago on Friday during a reception with rank-and-file Teamsters, union supporters and activists, and other labor leaders, including Teamsters General Secretary-Treasurer Fred Zuckerman and AFA-CWA President Sara Nelson. “From our members on the strike line against Molson Coors to passionate UPS Teamsters enforcing our historic contract to rank-and-filers helping to build worker power at Amazon nationwide, the Teamsters are organizing and fighting like never before,” O’Brien said. “Working together with Teamsters for a Democratic Union, we are building and sustaining a stronger union through solidarity. We are welcoming more workers into the Teamsters every day. Labor Notes is helping to keep the spotlight on the tremendous work that labor unions are performing today all over the country.” O’Brien and other union representatives will discuss the UPS Teamsters contract campaign last summer, Amazon picket line extensions, the Anheuser-Busch Teamsters record contract, and other significant gains of the past year during a conference panel on Saturday about the strike weapon. The Labor Notes conference of union members and supporters runs from April 19-21 on the northwest side of Chicago. #Teamsters #Solidarity #1u #LaborNotes

WITH TENTATIVE AGREEMENT, TEAMSTERS SECURE HIGHER STANDARDS AT ANHEUSER-BUSCH Rank-and-file Teamsters are prepared to ratify a strong new 5-year agreement with Anheuser-Busch at their breweries nationwide next week. With average 23% hourly wage increases, real job protections, higher pension contributions, and equal health care benefits for all, union members across the brewing industry are reminded of the collective power workers have to hold employers accountable and leverage their labor.

We are two days away from Anheuser Busch putting itself on strike. The 5,000 Teamsters behind AB InBev's record profits are ready to do what it takes to win what they deserve ⚡️⚡️⚡️

A MAKE-OR-BREAK WEEK FOR ANHEUSER-BUSCH What will AB InBev do with the next three days? Get back to the bargaining table and finally present workers with an offer that protects their jobs and boosts their wages? Or will #AnheuserBusch force the 5,000 Teamsters who make and move

ONE DAY LEFT FOR ANHEUSER-BUSCH TO ACT The Teamsters’ contract protecting 5,000 Anheuser-Busch brewers, packagers, and warehouse workers expires tomorrow — Feb. 29. For the first time since the end of January, Anheuser-Busch has come back to Washington, D.C., this morning to return to the bargaining table with the Teamsters national negotiating committee. After failing to meet from mid-November to late-January, Anheuser-Busch has ignored unified calls for job security and higher wages. AB InBev negotiators presented another insulting proposal across the table on Jan. 31. The next day, the Teamsters demanded a last, best, and final from the global brewer — which hardworking union members are still waiting for. “Anheuser-Busch can see the Teamsters in Texas right now holding the line against Molson Coors, and the solidarity of our union sends a powerful message. We are not afraid to withhold our labor against the biggest, greediest employers out there,” said Teamsters General President Sean M. O’Brien. “The Teamsters have been clear with AB InBev from the very beginning — our members make this beer, our members built this company, and it’s our members who deserve to be rewarded and respected on the job. At this point, whether Anheuser-Busch strikes itself from coast-to-coast is up to the company.” With expiration looming tomorrow, only hours remain for Anheuser-Busch to do right by its American workforce. The International Union has increased strike benefits for all members nationwide at Anheuser-Busch, who are ready to right and prepared to stand their ground for the rights and benefits they’ve earned. Tick tock. #NoContractNoBeer #Teamsters
