International Teamsters Union Support Strike by Iranian Truck Drivers
(Twitter) James P. Hoffa - Iranian truck drivers in 25 provinces and 160 cities have been on strike over low pay, rising operating costs, increased tolls, and other regulatory fees. Teamsters stand in solidarity with our Iranian brother and sisters! Representing 1.4 million transportation workers in the United States and Canada, we urge the government of Iran to listen to the grievances of striking Iranian truck drivers, address their just demands, and recognize their internationally recognized rights to assembly, speech, freedom of association, and collective bargaining. /signed/ James P. Hoffa, General President, International Brotherhood of Teamsters
