Corporate America spent 2011 going after our contracts and benefits. And 2012 promises more of the same.

Employers are gunning for the rights of every Teamster. Management is ready with their plan. We need to be ready too.

We all need to be ready to stand united and to demand that Teamsters get the contracts they deserve with secure benefits and no concessions.

You can count on me to be there organizing support and working to unite Teamster members.

In the coming year I will continue to travel North America to meet with Teamsters in trainings and strategy meetings, some sponsored by Teamsters for a Democratic Union, as well as Labor Notes conferences.

We have shut down our 2011 campaign website. But you can use this webform to send me a message.

Stay in touch. Stay informed. Stay united.

In solidarity,
Sandy Pope
