Teamsters Decline Presidential Endorsement for 2024
News summary

The Uncommitted National Movement, advocating for a ceasefire in Gaza, has announced it will not endorse Vice President Kamala Harris for the presidential election, criticizing her lack of commitment to changing U.S. arms policy and human rights advocacy. Instead, they urge supporters to vote against Donald Trump, warning that a third-party vote could inadvertently aid his re-election. Meanwhile, the International Brotherhood of Teamsters has made history by refraining from endorsing any candidate, marking the first time in nearly 30 years they have not backed a presidential nominee, citing dissatisfaction with both Trump and Harris. Internal polling revealed a shift among Teamsters members from supporting Biden to a majority favoring Trump after Biden's exit from the race. Teamsters President Sean O'Brien emphasized that neither candidate met the union's demands for commitment to workers' rights, including the right to strike. This decision signifies a notable departure from the Teamsters' long-standing support for Democratic candidates in previous elections.
