"The IBT Constitution should reflect the times we live in while protecting our members. We need to be proactive and progressive as an organization. This motion reflects the wishes of our members and we encourage other locals to take similar action." Jesse Case, Secretary-Treasurer, Teamsters Local 238
Motion
Motion by Teamsters Local 238 Secretary-Treasurer, Jesse Case, for Teamsters Local 238 to take an official position calling for an amendment to Article XII, Section 2 of the Teamsters Constitution to repeal the "two-thirds" rule.
In addition, Local 238 is calling on the formation of a nation-wide committee to make recommendations on how to protect the voices of members and assure elections are governed in a fashion that protects the integrity of the democratic process.
As part of this motion, Teamsters Local 238 is calling on other Teamster Locals across the country to take politics out of representation and pass similar motions supporting this change to the Teamster Constitution.
