Vice President Kamala Harris met with the International Brotherhood of Teamsters (IBT) at their Washington headquarters on Sept. 16 as her campaign seeks the union’s critical presidential endorsement.
The Teamsters union—with roughly 1.3 million members—is one of the few remaining organized labor groups that has yet to endorse a candidate in this presidential election. Harris, who has been endorsed by unions such as the United Auto Workers, AFL-CIO, and the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, is looking to secure the IBT’s support with just 49 days left before the Nov. 5 election.
