Protect your future by joining D.R.I.V.E.
Democrat
Republican Independent Voter Education
Now more than ever, working families have
to stand up and fight for a place at the table when our government makes
decisions. It's our duty to be informed and vote, but let's be honest; in
this day and age politics takes more than voting our beliefs, it takes money
to help candidates who support working families.
Why should you join the fight? Because
you live in a political world. Who gets elected affects you every minute of
the day. The people we elect levy the taxes; regulate workplace safety and
health; and make laws you have to live by. Gains that Teamsters win through
collective bargaining can be easily taken away in the legislative process.
it happens every day.
Corporate Bosses know the power of
politics. They are spending record amounts of money in Washington and across
the country to influence members of congress and push their anti-worker
agenda of:
TAKING AWAY OUR RIGHT TO ORGANIZE
PROMOTING THE USE OF SCABS
SHIPPING OR JOBS ACROSS BORDERS AND OVERSEAS
GUTTING WORKPLACE SAFETY PROTECTIONS
ROLLING BACK CORE WORKERS' RIGHT, SUCH AS OVERTIME
Do you want their voices
to be the only ones heard? NO!
