Rep. AOC Exposes USPS, Oshkosh Defense

With the help of the UAW International Union, climate organizers, and other allies, we uncovered something big in a hearing today. Under the leadership of Trump appointee Postmaster DeJoy, USPS contracted with Oshkosh Defense on a nearly $3 billion order for largely gas-powered postal trucks (despite the White House urging them to buy electric vehicles). Oshkosh has unionized warehouses equipped to handle this job in Wisconsin - but as soon as the contract was signed, they decided to move production to a non-union warehouse in South Carolina.
USPS knew that Oshkosh had pulled a bait and switch but they still announced publicly that the contract would benefit union shops. And today, Rep. AOC exposed them.
DeJoy needs to go.

[@csm92459]

You can bet that Oshkosh Defense didn't just stumble across an empty warehouse by accident. Time to ask South Carolina's Senators and Reps what they knew about this deal.

[@MrBreeze66]

So you literally have AOC trying to steer business to unions with their massive profits on the backs of labor. It’s not an accident unions were headed up by many organized crime figures.

[@justsomedudeyouknow8372]

Big companies really dont like unions. That should be a concern to anyone.

[@justsomedudeyouknow8372]

@Hector Fontanez Because unions are designed to protect workers from company abuse. When a company doesnt like the idea of a union, it means they are at fault and dont want to be held accountable.

[@justsomedudeyouknow8372]

@Hector Fontanez I've been in the teamsters for over 10 years. They have saved me from having to deal with problems at work directly more times than i can count. I got into it working at a canning company that is very well know. It was optional to join the union since it was seasonal work and not year round. I had several issues at that job with other employees slacking. Instead of confronting them directly and causing inter employee friction, the union dealt with it and got all instances resolved. And i'm sorry but i have no sympathy for companies that make billions yearly for treating workers badly, not giving them the overtime they deserves, or cheating them out of workmans comp when accidents take the worker out of the workforce. I'm not saying all unions are great and do what they are designed for, but i'd rather be union than not. Companies pay lots of money to get workers against unionizing because they cant run their business like a sweatshop. There was another well know canning company that was non union in that area that i worked for one day at. The bathrooms were porta pottys that they didnt clean until the end of the season(3-4 months), the "breakroom" was outside on the ground next to the porta pottys in 105 heat. Needless to say, i'll stick with teamsters. The monthly dues are minimal.

[@justsomedudeyouknow8372]

@Hector Fontanez Well thats a tough call. If police operated the way they are supposed to then i would think a union wouldnt be needed. I support unions for workers that work for companies. Of course any union can be corrupted and ran by criminals. Look at the movie "on the waterfront" for a good example of a union ran by the mafia. To me a union is necessary for most jobs but cant have total power with no oversight.

[@justsomedudeyouknow8372]
