PORT RALLY. On Tuesday July 22, 2008 thousands of Teamsters will decend upon Oakland California to march in support of the port truck drivers and clean air at the Port of Oakland. IBT President  Jim Hoffa will lead the  marchers from the Oakland Marriot to Jack London Square. Can you imagine working for $8 dollars an hour with no pension, or health benefits? That's the plight of today's port truck driver's, who work upwards of ten hours per day and still fall far short of a decent standard of living. It's time to demand justice and dignity for these workers.

If you can join us for a demonstration of Teamster power, please contact Teamsters Local 150 to reserve a seat on the bus. We will meet at Teamsters Local 150 betwen 11:00am and noon on Tuesday, July 22, 2008. Lunch will be served then we will board the buses at noon for Oakland. We should return to Sacramento around 7:00pm. Seats ar limited so contact us today.
