THANK YOU AG ELLISON When a lawsuit was filed challenging Minnesota’s ban on captive audience meetings, we got to work defending this pro-worker law. The Court of Appeals dismissed the lawsuit and today, the Supreme Court left that dismissal in place. This is a great day for MN.

Teamsters General President Sean M. O’Brien, General Secretary-Treasurer Fred Zuckerman, and the Teamsters Human Rights and Diversity Commission held a ceremony today to unveil a new bust of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. at Teamsters Headquarters in Washington, DC. The bust now on display honors the special relationship shared between Dr. King and the Teamsters Union during his lifetime and beyond. Dr. King was a supporter of many Teamsters causes, which the union recognized by naming him an honorary Teamster in 2023. With this new installation, Dr. King’s legacy with the Teamsters Union will forever be part of our story. “Dr. King didn’t just fight for civil rights. He was one of the most important labor leaders in our country’s history, and we are honored to help preserve his legacy,” O'Brien said. “I hope this permanent installation reminds rank-and-file Teamsters of the sacrifices made by generations before — and serves as inspiration to future generations to forever carry the torch of making Dr. King’s dream of equality a reality for all workers in America.”

The Faster Labor Contracts Act is bipartisan in both the House and Senate and has the votes to pass mark-up in Chair Cassidy’s Committee. We appreciate Chair Cassidy’s interest in dialogue on labor reform, but instead of introducing legislative packages that will not receive bipartisan support, Chair Cassidy should schedule a mark-up on a serious bill like the Faster Labor Contracts Act.

TEAMSTERS Joint Council 32 endorsed candidate Kaohly Her wins St. Paul mayor’s race! Congratulations to all who believed in Her.

@Teamsters Great News!

“Cannabis workers are organizing because they believe in the future of this industry. They don’t want cannabis to become another gig economy experiment where people cycle in and out without security or growth. They want careers with dignity, stability, and a voice in shaping the future. Employers who recognize that — and who are willing to work with the Teamsters to make it happen — will be the ones who last.” Read the op-ed from Jesse Case, Teamsters Food Processing Division Director, on the role Teamsters are playing in bringing stability and prosperity to the cannabis industry: greenstate.com/perspective/te…

When workers vote to form a union, they should have a seat at the bargaining table. But too often, companies stall the process, leaving workers without a voice. The Faster Labor Contracts Act fixes that. Join me, the @Teamsters, and @reppetestauber live at 2 pm to introduce the bill: youtube.com/watch?v=Ppe_LG…

Jeremy Manley, President of Teamsters Local 245, has been appointed to the Missouri State Board of Mediation by @GovMikeKehoe.
