I am new to the Brotherhood. Before I joined I thought that it was only freight haulers that were members. I didn't know about all the other divisions. Does anyone know if thoes other divisions pay into centreal states or not? I was not around to vote for JH or TJ and I don't know beans about either of them. From what I gather on this site they are not very good. Is that the opion of most here? If so what can be done about it? From what I have seen and read the biggest concern the IBT has is to increase membership and membership dues by any means. Is that right? It concerns me greatly to know that laidoff brothers and sisters are not taken care of in anyway by the local or the national. I know this first hand haveing been one early this year. I fully expect to be one again soon. It also concerns me to know that most brothers and sisters pay little attention to what is happening with their own locals. I was so proud to become a teamster after 17 years of waiting. Now I am wondering if I am just to blind to see the writing on the wall.
