Hello, I’m Sal Lomeli, Secretary Treasurer of Lo

Hello, I’m Sal Lomeli, Secretary Treasurer of Local 439. Today I’m here to talk about a historic accomplishment in the labor movement. Working alongside the leadership of Local 439, our members recently achieved a significant victory by successfully settling a grievance with Reyes Holdings for over one hundred thousand dollars. This is the largest grievance settlement in Reyes Holdings history.

It is extremely important for us to stand up for our members and ensure that all individuals are treated fairly and with respect in the workplace. Our leadership felt it was necessary to make a strong statement by pursuing legal action against Reyes Holdings, and we are pleased with the outcome of the settlement.

Moreover, this momentous victory serves as an example of the incredible power of collective action. By uniting together and working towards a common purpose, our members were able to make a lasting impact and achieve something that had never been done before in Reyes Holdings’ history.

This victory is especially meaningful as it sends an important message to other businesses in the area. We want them to know that when they mistreat our members, they will face serious consequences. We are incredibly proud of our members and our local leadership for this momentous victory!

Welcome to the rally against self-driving trucks!

Welcome to the rally against self-driving trucks! On behalf of The International Brotherhood of Teamsters ,Local 439 joined the Rally Monday and is in full support with our Union Leaders.

Today, automated vehicles are being tested on our roads, increasingly so, and at great speed. But the truth is that self-driving technology is still in its infant stages and this poses a significant risk to drivers, passengers, and pedestrians alike.

Not only does this technology have a long way to go before it’s fully ready for our roads, but it also puts jobs at risk. Self-driving technology threatens the livelihood of thousands of drivers, their families, and their communities. Teamsters Local 439 stands in solidarity with drivers across the country who are joining us in protest today.

When it comes to safety, drivers cannot be outdone by self-driving technology. Technology fails and humans will always be more efficient than machines. The safety of drivers and the danger posed to pedestrians and other travelers on the road make automated vehicles a high-risk proposition. No!!!To self driving diesel Trucks 🛻💨

The Teamsters Union has been fighting for workers’ rights and safety protections since 1903. From advocating for minimum wage to Social Security, healthcare, and retirement benefits, the Teamsters Union is at the forefront of the labor movement. They have also been advocates of diversity, inclusion and respect among its members.

With that in mind, we are here today to show our solidarity with the Teamsters Union and its members. We believe in the power of unity, and we recognize that the strength of our union is its diversity. We come together today to show that solidarity, and to vow to continue to fight for justice and fairness for all workers.

We also want to acknowledge and thank the hard-working members of the union for their unwavering commitment to protecting the health and well-being of all workers. We understand that what you do is difficult, and we are here to support you in your efforts.

We want to make it clear that our fight will not end here. We will continue to march for fairness for all workers everywhere. Our voices are loud, but our unity is even louder. Together we can make a difference and ensure that all workers are treated with the respect they deserve.

Good morning everyone,on behalf of Local 439, toda

Good morning everyone,on behalf of Local 439, today we’d like to take a moment to honor the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and the lasting impact he had on the civil rights movement.

On this day, we remember Dr. King’s inspiring words and courageous spirit as he helped lead the charge for equality and justice. We recognize how he forever changed the course of history through his actions and inspiring speeches, such as his famous “I Have a Dream” speech.

Dr. King worked tirelessly to end segregation, giving voice to oppressed people nationwide who sought change but didn’t have a platform from which to speak. He served as a leader of the civil rights movement and catalyzed one of the most influential social and political revolutions in recent

Finally, we recognize that his legacy reaches far beyond today. Dr. King’s courage persists in all of us, motivating us to continue the fight against racism and all forms of injustice in our society and around the world. Let us never forget his courage, his leadership, and his historic contributions.

On this day, let us all honor the memory of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. May we continue to strive for justice and equality for all people everywhere.

Thank you for your time and attention.
