As with many divorces, there are complicated disputes, even after a split. So it goes with the separation of the Printing, Packaging & Production Workers Union and its former merger partner, The Teamsters.
Most of you will have received by snail-mail jumbo postcards from each side arguing and catcalling to support their positions.

If you come across other information that could be added to this roundup, please send information to Local 406 Secretary-Treasurer Liisa May at liisamay@mac.com to be considered for inclusion.
