TEAMSTER LEADERS UNANIMOUSLY ENDORSE TENTATIVE ABF AGREEMENT

Teamsters Union local leaders have announced their endorsement and support for the tentative agreement reached between the Teamsters National Freight Industry Negotiating Committee (TNFINC) and ABF Freight. The national contract covers over 8,500 members.

“With this new agreement, we have reset the standard and charted a new course for the entire freight industry,” said Teamsters General President Sean M. O’Brien. “The gains made at the table are a testament to our strength and commitment to revamp and rebuild the Freight Division.”

Local 135 Recording-Secretary/Freight Division Director and former ABF City Chief Steward, Tim Jordan, along with Paul Dwigans, Vice President for Local 135, traveled to Chicago today to be in attendance for this important meeting.

We will update our ABF members with any and all necessary information we get as it’s received.
