"Orlando UPS Teamsters Gear Up for Impending Nationwide Strike"

United Parcel Service (UPS) Teamsters in Orlando, Florida, are preparing for a potential nationwide strike, which could be one of the largest in U.S. history. The International Brotherhood of Teamsters, representing about 340,000 UPS workers across the country, is negotiating a new union contract with UPS. The union is demanding an end to part-time poverty, better working conditions, and the elimination of a two-tier system that creates wage disparities among workers. If an agreement is not reached by the contract's expiration on July 31, UPS Teamsters have voted to go on strike starting August 1.
