Teamsters Will Not Endorse Any Candidate in the US 2024 Elections

The Teamsters announced on September 18 that they will not endorse any candidate for president in the upcoming election. The announcement of one of the largest unions in the country which endorsed Joe Biden in the 2020 election, has caused a national impact. This marks the first time since 1996 that the union hasn't endorsed a candidate. The Teamsters' decision is a true example that we applaud, beyond our differences with the leadership of the union whose members are part of the American union bureaucracy.
Under the pressure of its rank and file, the Teamsters' decision shows that the behavior of not supporting any of the capitalist coalitions and fighting for class independence is imposed in order to confront American imperialist capitalism. The Teamsters' decision is a step to follow that must be imitated by all social and political organizations in the country. If you want to read the Teamsters statement click here.
