Teamsters trouble
Robert Novak
excerpt:
President Bush's continued courtship of the Teamsters union hit a snag when he did not congratulate Teamsters President James P. Hoffa for the union's recent six-year agreement with United Parcel Service.
Teamsters officials privately complained about the administration's oversight of the union that Bush and his political aides have been wooing aggressively. In 1997, when the Teamsters were headed by Hoffa adversary Ron Carey, a bitter two-week strike cost UPS $750 million.
