Teamsters for a Democratic Union

Organization of rank and file members of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, Chauffeurs, Warehousemen and Helpers of America who sought to reform the structures and practices of the union leadership, especially in relation to the handling of union pension funds. The TDU supports candidates for local union offices and also works to prevent sweetheart deals with employers that could be detrimental to the rank and file membership. Originally organized in Cleveland, Ohio, much of the early leadership of the TDU came from Cleveland Local 407.
