Unions Raise Wages. Tariffs Don’t.
09/03/25 - Teamsters Local 355 Sept. 3, 2025 | WAGES | Tariffs do not automatically raise wages or create good jobs. While protectionist trade policies can help preserve jobs in industries facing unfair competition, strong unions are a prerequisite for tariffs to translate into widespread job and wage gains. Without unions, corporate executives have no incentive to pass on the profits they’re gaining to their workers. |

ZUM BUS SOLIDARITY RALLY
09/02/25 - Teamsters Local Union No 570 
Teamsters Local 570 members at Zum Transportation in Jessup, Md., rallied today to show a unified front and their readiness to secure a strong first Teamsters contract. The group consists of more than 300 bus drivers, van drivers, trainers, and attendants who provide student transportation for Howard County Public Schools.
Earlier this year, the group voted by a four-to-one margin to join the Teamsters in order to fight for a contract that reflects the work that they put into their community and gives them the respect they’ve more than earned.
Wages remain one of the key outstanding issues in contract negotiations, while the employer has agreed to back pay that will be retroactive to the first day of the 2025-2026 school year once the contract has been ratified. Local 570 met with Zum last week and has proposed additional bargaining dates in September. |
