UPS workers are prepping for one of the biggest strikes in American history. We hit a Teamsters practice picket with Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and hundreds of workers, who told us why 340,000 of them are ready to strike. The biggest demand? “We need to get paid.” We've been covering UPS Teamsters ahead of their looming strike deadline later this summer. If UPS fails to reach a fair deal with workers, over 300,000 workers could walk out on the largest single-employer strike in U.S. history. #ups #teamsters #strike #aoc ----- More Perfect Union is a new nonprofit media org with a mission to empower working people.

      Pretty embarrassing to be an adult and not have a basic understanding that everything is not black or white.

      Just cause someone is a politician doesnt automatically make them unethical or corrupt. You literally need to be a politician to participate in the political system… i shouldnt have to be telling you people this lol…
