Keep in mind that it was only a NATIONAL union no-endorsement... Think. Again. Sep 18 #2

They are still the head and they need to know that there are potential consequences. cstanleytech Sep 18 #3

I fully agree, but I feel we should also be supporting and thanking the individual local chapters that endorse Harris. Think. Again. Sep 18 #5

Enough backlash and National may change their stance. Kittycatkat Sep 18 #4

Yes, If a local chapter supports Harris, we should show our support for them too. Think. Again. Sep 18 #6

I called my local as well. National Teamsters must support Harris, or the Teamsters lose my support. Period.

without their support. Local chapters will make up their own minds. They see just what is being done for, and not to, their union brothers.

A 'No' endorsement is the same as a Trump endorsement...and they know it. What has a GOP POTUS ever done for unions, except to fuck 'locals' over and pass shitloads of $$ back and forth between the GOP and national leadership.
