    Is the IBT raiding ten roads express?

    Saw a TDU post about organizing drivers at 10 roads express , I thought the APWU represented these people already.

    meanwhile SAIA , R+L carriers , old dominion , Estes don’t have a single Teamster yard

    I wouldn't be surprised.

    It's also been reported on this site that old GCIU units are being raided and members are being encouraged to sign decertification cards so they can join Teamster Locals. I believe this all started when O'brien terminated the GCIU affiliation agreement. Raiding other unions is as low as it gets.

      Raiding other unions is a Teamster thing. Just ask Randy Korgan how he raided another union to build his own local after he served as trustee of Local 630 and lost the election.

      Korgan even had a DJ ready to celebrate.

          More on Teamster organizing at 10 Roads Express. One of the comments mentions the organizing by the APWU.
          Dozens of truck drivers at 10 Roads Express, a major Postal Service contractor, have voted to join the Teamsters in recent months.

            It's true about GCIU. I've fielded calls from workers saying that Teamster organizers have been pushing to have them join the Teamsters. Sickening to see this nonsense

              It all starts with one member of the other union not happy with their current representation and then grows to multiple people seeking other unions. It's not only the Teamsters raiding other unions those other unions raid Teamster barns as well.

                So the GCIU is raiding Teamsters units? I would get it if they are raiding us, but this is more about retaliation against the GCIU for standing up to the OZholes.

                  If 10 Roads is largely non-union, then it isn't raiding to organize the workers. I would want our union to organize in core industries. Seems like there's some momentum.

                      You are correct about Rozelle. Who and what is 10 Roads ?
