Dear Brothers and Sisters,
 
That’s a big no getting blue lenses for the back of all of our vehicles. There is actually a state law that prevents this. I asked about the red lenses and the same law applies.
 
Teamsters  have retained a lobbyist to move us into a different retirement group. We will file a bill. Please understand this is an uphill battle, but we as the Teamsters are up to this challenge. Just had a meeting with Director Gulliver. He is definitely on board with raising death benefits for any member killed in the line of duty. Again, speak to your representatives and senators and let them know how dangerous your jobs are.
 
Teamsters requested and were granted Road set up schools - crash prevention schools, for all members coming to a depot near you  Thank you for all you do.
 
In solidarity
