  Teamsters Fight so called "Right to Work"
                                                                                               .
A new piece of legislation being called "Right to Work" has been introduced in the Michigan House of Representative.  The "Right to Work" legislation blatantly attacks wages, benefits and job security workers in the State of Michigan.  The legislation should more correctly be called "The Right to Work for Less".  It's an effort to reduce union wages and benefits.  Even worse, similar bills are being introduced to statehouses all over the country.  Local 580 is holding information a strategy meetings.  Come and join the fight.
.
 • Update from Dan Reilly, IBT State Legislative & Political Director, on the the "War on Workers" and the "Right to Work for Less" attack.

 • Editorial by Mike Parker on the "Right to Work for Less" attack.

 • Editorial by Teamster General President Hoffa on the "Right to Work for Less" attack.

 • Mike Parker comments on the Michigan Republican Senate introducing a "Right to Work" “for less” bill in yet another attack on workers paychecks.
