“The union’s extensive member polling showed no majority support for Vice President Harris and no universal support among the membership for President Trump.”
This was the union’s justification for failing to endorse a 2024 presidential candidate. Sean O’Brien, General President of the Teamsters, said,
“Neither major candidate was able to make serious commitments to our union to ensure that working people’s interests are always put before Big Business.”
In a statement to Fox News after the union’s decision to maintain neutrality, the Harris campaign cited support from “many Teamsters locals and rank and file.”
