Save Teamsters Local 677!

Problem: This was is a poor decision
Solution: We assert the right to appeal.
General President of the International Brotherhood of Teamster, Sean O'Brian along with General Secretary-Treasurer, Fred Zuckerman have made the drastic decision to disband Teamsters Local Union #677 and distribute its membership in its entirety, which consist of over 2000 members. Brother O'Brien, you say "Members First" but apparently just not the ones in Local #677.
