ZUM BUS SOLIDARITY RALLY
09/02/25 - Teamsters Local Union No 570 Teamsters Local 570 members at Zum Transportation in Jessup, Md., rallied today to show a unified front and their readiness to secure a strong first Teamsters contract. The group consists of more than 300 bus drivers, van drivers, trainers, and attendants who provide student transportation for Howard County Public Schools. Earlier this year, the group voted by a four-to-one margin to join the Teamsters in order to fight for a contract that reflects the work that they put into their community and gives them the respect they’ve more than earned. Wages remain one of the key outstanding issues in contract negotiations, while the employer has agreed to back pay that will be retroactive to the first day of the 2025-2026 school year once the contract has been ratified. Local 570 met with Zum last week and has proposed additional bargaining dates in September. |

How Labor Day Emerged From The Movement for a Shorter Workday
09/01/25 - Teamsters Local 355 Sept. 1, 2025 | LABOR HISTORY | Most of the world observes International Workers’ Day on May 1 or the first Monday in May each year, but not the United States and Canada. Instead, Americans and Canadians have celebrated Labor Day as a national holiday on the first Monday in September since 1894, 12 years after the first observance of Labor Day in New York City. |

RISE Members on Strike!
09/01/25 - Teamsters Local 776 As we celebrate this Labor Day, our Brothers and Sisters at Rise Dispensary will not be joining in the celebration. They have been forced to strike by the employer for their bad faith tactics at the bargaining table. The company has refused to offer our members a living wage, all while generating record revenues of $1.1 billion in 2024. |
