[QUOTE="kristan, post: 620304, member: 25501"] He's entirely 100% responsible, I agree, and I can't imagine a longtime president of a major local not knowing the history of that hotel. To be clear: we're not talking about just ANY anti-union establishment. This is Sheldon Adelson's Venetian Resort Hotel, which is the only non-union hotel on the LV strip. There have been marches and protests going on outside that place for a decade now. Even worse, the trip in question was for the Teamsters Unity Conference on the local's dime! He stayed in not one, but TWO suites while he was there for the weekend prior to the conference until he checked out mid-week. Why did he not think people wouldn't track that kind of thing? It's not as if we ONLY know Teamsters from our own locals, sheesh. Sloppy. The rest of his executive board and their guests stayed at Bally's with the other Teamster brothers and sisters who attended the conference, which was also located within the Bally's Hotel -- a union facility. To all who apply: [B]Vote for Billy Smith and his Members First Slate[/B]. The ballots were mailed on 10/19, so all 767 members should be getting them this week. If you don't have your ballot by Monday, I'd call True Ballot and request one be sent to your home immediately: 1-866-556-5190. We know there have been problems in the past with returned mail and the local not being on top of getting returned ballot info back to True Ballot in a timely manner, so be in control of your vote more than ever on this one. All ballots not returned by 11/14 will NOT be counted. Please mail them as soon as you receive them without any delay because we all need the Members First guys to pull through here. They need your support, but they also need your vote. [/QUOTE]
