IL HR0357

United Parcel Service employs more than 340,000 Teamster members under the largest private sector collective bargaining agreement in the United States.

The current UPS-Teamster collective bargaining agreement expires on July 31, 2023, with 97% of UPS Teamsters voting to authorize a potential strike if no successor agreement is reached.

Illinois House calls on elected officials at local, state, and federal levels to support UPS Teamsters in negotiations for fair wages, safe working conditions, affordable healthcare, and dignified retirement benefits.

Illinois House calls on the federal government to respect UPS Teamsters' right to collectively bargain, including their right to withhold labor.

Illinois House urges elected officials to sign an open letter affirming that government should not intervene in collective bargaining between workers and employers unless the agreement is first ratified by rank-and-file UPS Teamsters.
