Teamsters Remember James R. Hoffa
08/01/25 - Teamsters Local Union No 570 
Legendary Labor Leader Changed the Course of History for American Workers
Press Contact: Kara Deniz Phone: (202) 497-6610 Email: KDeniz@teamster.org
(WASHINGTON) – The following is a statement from Teamsters General President Sean M. O’Brien in remembrance of General President Emeritus James R. Hoffa: “James R. Hoffa was a great man and legendary labor leader who transformed the lives of all Teamsters and Americans. He fought tirelessly for strong wages, benefits, and protections that lifted millions of workers into the middle class.
“Hoffa was fearless in taking on greedy employers to secure groundbreaking national contracts. He is recognized for turning the Teamsters Union into an international powerhouse, bringing dignity and respect to the working class. This no doubt made him the eventual target of evil forces. |
