Teamsters endorse Hillary ClintonBy COGAN SCHNEIER and MARIANNE LEVINE 08/26/16 06:21 PM EDT
The 1.4-million-member Teamsters endorsed Hillary Clinton, the union announced Friday, in a unanimous vote by its executive board.
The International Brotherhood of Teamsters is the nation's fourth-largest union, and the last of the country's labor giants to fall behind the Democratic presidential nominee well behind the National Education Association, the Service Employees International Union, and the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, which all endorsed Clinton in 2015.
Unlike these other unions, the Teamsters do not consistently endorse the Democratic candidate for president.

phone banking for Hillary and all Democratic Candidates here in Nevada. Teamster Brothers and Sister are organizing our phone banks as we speak.
Con Man Don will run his lip and his friggin plane might end up stranded in some not so friendly place.
Deliveries to his so called properties could go anywhere. Gee,who woulda thunk!

I know, I know, I'm playing to stereotypes -- but that phrase was just too good not to use.
Thank you, Teamsters!
