Thank you
@realDonaldTrump
for putting American workers first by nominating Rep. Lori Chavez-DeRemer for US Labor Secretary. Nearly a year ago, you joined us for a
@Teamsters
roundtable and pledged to listen to workers and find common ground to protect and respect labor in America. You put words into action. Now let’s grow wages and improve working conditions nationwide. Congratulations to
@LChavezDeRemer
on your nomination! North America’s strongest union is ready to work with you every step of the way to expand good union jobs and rebuild our nation’s middle class. Let’s get to work! #TeamsterStrong
Edit: This is from a couple months ago, I’m not trying to make it sound like O’Brien is still licking Trump’s nethers as we speak. Although, it wouldn’t surprise me.
Chavez-DeRemer was the only Republican co-sponsor and one of three congressional Republicans to support the Protecting the Right to Organize Act (PRO Act) strongly opposed by business groups. The act would give workers more advantages when organizing or joining unions and bargaining with employers, also weakening state right-to-work laws. She was supported by Teamsters President Sean O’Brien for the position of Secretary of Labor, who thanked President-elect Trump for the nomination, noting her support of the PRO Act. Her nomination was opposed by some business interest groups.
Could be worse, but I’m still skeptical until proven otherwise.
The article talks about how union leadership has gotten so soft and corrupt that they squandered a lot of what they could have been accomplishing for the last four years, with the hardened rank-and-file members often clamoring to try to get more to happen, and the leaders slow-walking everything, apparently for reasons of laziness.
O’Brien is quite a bit worse than the norm, but he’s also apparently not some weird singular exception. He just made himself more visible by allying himself with Trump.
Any word from O’Brien on the latest events?

Accurate username, teamster son of a bitch is trying to sell out his members.
How did that little weasel come to lead the largest union in USA?
