My good friend Joe has been embroiled in the fight for democracy in his Teamsters local. As outlined in this article from The Nation, Local 743 leadership has routinely sold out its members and stolen elections to maintain their grip on the local. They’re having trouble fighting their legal battle, and are trying to raise just $5000 to keep up the fight. If you can spare a few bucks to help out, it’d go a long way. You can Donate with PayPal.
