"UPS workers, as evidenced by a 97 percent strike authorization vote last month, are ready to fight. But that is the last thing that the Teamsters bureaucracy, led by General President Sean O’ Brien, wants. ...the bureaucracy is working desperately behind the scenes in order to get a sellout deal done. One of the clearest indications of this is the Teamsters’ constant promotion of the “support” from Congress, which voted last year to ban a strike by 120,000 railroaders and impose a pro-company contract. ...mostly members of the Democratic Party, voted in favor of House Joint Resolution 100 to ban the strike on the railroads. ... The Teamsters did not inform workers that Khanna voted against the rail strike, nor did it feel compelled to admit that within the last year, per Capitol Trades, Khanna had purchased between $32,000 and $130,000 in UPS stock. Khanna is one of the most prolific stock traders in Congress. ...Democratic Socialists of America members Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Jamaal Bowman (New York), Cori Bush (Missouri) and Greg Casar (Texas). All these fake socialists voted with right-wing Republicans to ban the rail strike."
