340,000 UPS Teamsters are fighting for a fair contract across the country, with a living wage for all UPS workers including part time. Negotiations are ongoing, but the sticking point seems to be over wages for part time workers (the majority of UPS Teamsters) and benefits.
Teamsters across the country have been holding practice pickets to prepare for a possible strike on August 1st and to apply pressure on the company. Come to the practice picket to show that Teamsters aren't alone in the their fight against UPS and to speak with UPS workers about their contract fight. Wear your DSA or Union gear to let people know DSA stands with UPS teamsters.
