Approximately 1,300 Teamsters will review the details of the tentative agreement on Thursday and hold a ratification vote that will start that evening at midnight and conclude on Friday at 10 a.m. Specific contract details will not be released to the media prior to the ratification vote.
"When our negotiating committee began this process we agreed that no matter how difficult this process may prove to be, our only goal was to secure a contract that would offer financial security for each member now and in the future," said Danny Kane, President of Teamsters Local 202. "I believe that this tentative agreement more than meets that goal."
