Stu Helfer Statement

[Tpost]

all of Labor in Alameda County would go a long way to gaining more support for our position.

Additionally, the Countywide Central Labor Council had supported our successful earlier efforts increasing prevailing wage inclusion for offsite hauling public works projects in California. Also, the Central Labor Council had supported our legislation on the inclusion of a prevailing wage determination for our many ready mix concrete drivers (Assembly Bill 219 (AB 219)).

Results - All of these issues - critical and vital to Teamster - passed and became law.

[Mr. Teamster]

The West will never be the same Terry. This was done by design. The Boston boys have never respected or liked the West. Everything we have is superior to them. Some of their members know this. It burns them up. Mark my words the west will be playing catch up for decades over this.

Stu Helfer was the best Teamster construction guy in the IBT. He single handidly brought the Teamsters back to prominence in Construction after they had been dead for 20 years. Sat on the State Building Trades Executive Board, and generally was recognized as the unquestionable expert throughout the West. He assisted anyone who asked, played a prominent role politically, and was the most instrumental in gaining prevailing wage for Ready Mix drivers. His case, along with the others who were vilified by the oz/IIO/govt witch hunt is more evidence that facts and proof mean nothing, and that there is no credibility within the Teamsters any longer. Simply, an empty bunch of suits and neckties...

Looking like O'Brien will push to dissolve 853 and split the crafts into locals that are loyal to him.
