Dayshift Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 The teamsters were plagued with scandal in the 40's & 50's. It did not correct itself until The teamsters implemented direct election of their national leaders. Is it time to let UAW members nominate and elect our own choices for national leadership or do we continue with the system that has give us the current scandal driven situation. Where is the outcry from membership regarding how our money has been squandered and even stolen. Where is the widespread call for change.

fuzzymoomoo Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 It's gotten to the point that if you have the option to stop paying dues, you probably should until the rank and file have more of a voice to pick international reps. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decker Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 (edited) I heard that Fuzzy. If CAP was in a right to work state I`d become an agency member in a heart beat. But... as always the sheep are to frightened by all the bullshit the sheepies listen to while continuing to pay for all the perks. "An agency shop is a form of union security agreement where the employer may hire union or non-union workers, and employees need not join the union in order to remain employed. However, the non-union worker must pay a fee to cover collective bargaining costs." Edited January 9, 2020 by Decker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are kinda correct but the elections did little compared to the Fed`s over sight for the last 30 or 35 years. The IUAW has done their planting of the corruption seed so deep that if the Fed`s keeps digging every IUAW, every Local and every supplier referred by IUAW will prove out in the same boat as the current and last 4 or 5 administrations. Pay to Play - Groomed for Elected position's - Made Men (Women) - etc etc etc Nuttin new here people just a method of business that has been in place for many year annnd like so many other organizations that think they got everything under control (bullshitted sheepies in line) then the light gets turned on. Then the he/she was such a nice person or he/she never came across as someone who would..... well maybe another NETFLEX story line?
